Same Direction

This anniversary card features a favorite quote that I usually use on wedding cards . . .


 . . . but it's also perfect  to give to a couple looking back on several decades of a very loving and successful marriage.

I used dark green along with a fresh Spring green on the reverse die cut leaves.  This was meant to suggest both old growth and new.  As all really great marriages involve plenty of each, I thought it would be fun to imply that in the artwork.  Then again, the two shades of green look pretty together and perhaps that's enough . . .
