Happy Anniversary Card, a.k.a "My first attempt at these challenge things"

Here we go, my first attempt at these challenges that I keep reading about!

This card was designed and created for three separate challenges:

• Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge - "A Cameo Appearance"
• Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - "Wedding or Anniversary"
• Silhouette Blog Weekly Challenge - "Paper"

The background of the card is silver embossing powder on black card stock. The "cameo" couple was cut using my Silhouette Cameo. I searched the internet for a public domain image of the restroom icons, then used Silhouette Studio's trace feature to turn the icons into shapes. I pushed the two shapes together so the man and woman look like they're holding hands. The sentiment was drawn with the Silhouette Cameo using the silver sketch pen. A heart punch and dashed line finish things off nicely.

I think my first attempt at the challenges was a success. If nothing else the deadlines caused me to carve out some specific time to craft, which is always a good thing. Hopefully there will be many more challenge entries in my future!
