Today is my in-laws 50th wedding Anniversary..................50 years, WOW!!!! I think that is absolutely incredible in this day and age. They really are an amasing couple and a true inspiration to me as my mom was unfortunate enough to have to suffer through 2 BAD marriages so my in-laws have now restored my faith in matrimony......
We're having a family get together for them tomorrow to celebrate so I though I'd make them a card they could keep to commemorate the occasion. I used a copy of a pic I've used before in a LO I did for them. It's my absolute favourite wedding pic of them. They looks so natural and happy. My FIL is staring at my MIL with such adoration in this pic......

They have 4 sons, my hubby being the youngest. So for the inside of the card I used some pp's to create 4 framed blocks, 1 for each of their sons to write a message from their respective families. I really hope they like this and I thought it would be something more personal to keep than some store-bought card.
