Hi Everyone
Well the big day has come and Mr Heart has today been enjoying his first day of retirement.
I allowed him a "lie-in" this morning but told him not to make it a habit LOL!!
Sadly all plans for celebrating outside of the home have had to be cancelled but we did cook and share a special meal together last night and will be doing the same on Sunday for our wedding anniversary.
This is the card I made for him .. .. .. (I think he took the hint)
This used:
Image: LOTV Simply Print "A Lick of Paint"
Sentiment: Computer Generated using fonts "Paint Drips" and "Aracne Condensed Regular"
Backing Papers: Make & Create "Grunge Dreams"
Ribbon
My Trusty Sewing Machine
and that is me for today.
I hope you are all safe and well and have been able to get your hands on some essential shopping items!!

Hi Jules, congratulations to Dave. Retirement is to be recommended, even it does start with redecorating the home. Great card! And congratulations to you both on your anniversary. Celebrating on lockdown ensures it's one you'll never forget. Stay safe and keep well. Hugs, Elizabeth xx
Congratulations I hope your Hubby will have a long and happy retirement, believe me Jules, it's the best state to be in.
Pity friends and family couldn't celebrate, but there's time when all this is over.
Love these little guys form LOTV, your card is lovely, keep safe Kate x

Have you loads of jobs lined up for hubby? Loved the sentiment you teamed with the image a fun card to celebrate his retirement
Talk about dropping hints! This is a great image for a retirement card and good that you could enjoy a celebratory meal together at home. Happy Anniversary too for Sunday.
Oh my gosh, the sentiment did make me laugh out loud. A brilliant creation, super image, great CAS and lovely colours.

Wow, what a gorgeous card, I guess the hint is "subtle" enough ! :)))) Congratulations to Mr. Heart, and also for your Wedding Anniversary on Sunday!
Yes, we all have to postpone some celebrations, but the most important thing is, that we stay healthy ! All the best and many hugs from Enny
Morning Jules...your card is brilliant ...that's exactly what my hubby did when he first retired decorating but after 18 months he was bored so got a part time job!!...but we've been lucky enough to have had 22 years of retirement together so far so hope you and Dave have the same.
take care

A super card Jules, I'm glad he took the hint - I hope you already have the paint though!
Such a shame you didn't get to celebrate as intended but I'm sure that you will get to do it at some point in the future.
Happy Anniversary for tomorrow.
