For my card today, I colored the peppers with prismacolor pencils and gamsol. My layout is from last week's Wednesday Stamp Club Sketch.
 
I stamped the single peppers from this set on the background of my card. They are stamped on kraft cardstock with cajun craze ink.  I added some texture by dry embossing 2 of my panels with a sizzix basket weave folder. I also used a Martha Stewart border punch.
 
I chose this sentiment from the set because I will send this card to my friends who will be celebrating an anniversary soon. 
 
Well, this is the last day of the hop. I hope you have enjoyed all my samples as well as the rest of the design team. All the stamps are available for purchase now at the Marks Finest Papers Store.
