I've used a stamp set called Text Objects to make an anniversary card to have in my stash.  I know this is more layers than I generally do but it's kinda fun to get out the papers and sewing machine!!!  Love the little quote by Winnie the Pooh that was stamped for the horizontal panel.....
 
If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you.--Winnie the Pooh

I've used the newest Viva la Verve sketch that can be found HERE but I rotated it horizontal..  Make sure to read the master challenge thread on Splitcoast Stampers for your chance at winning some Verve for yourself!
