Mojo Monday and Happy Anniversary

Our anniversary is the 8th of this month so I made this card quick today in between packing for our camping trip and a million other things.
I used this weeks Mojo Monday sketch:
This week you had a choice between square or round. I decided to just go with my regular A2 size for two reasons. The first one being that I made a square one for my husbands birthday which is the day after our anniversary so I didn't want to give him two square cards and I thought a round card wasn't as masculine. Also I didn't have much time and it was faster for me to make an A2 card. Don't know if I can enter my card or not but I did get the card made and hidden in the camper without my husband any the wiser.
 And now for my card:
 I would have liked to have matted a the paper ribbon and the striped square but like I said I was short on time so I left them alone.
 The only stamping on this card is the sentiment and the doves on the heart. I stayed true to the sketch except for the shape of the card of course. The paper is from DCWV Citrus matstack. Love its bright colors and patterns. I first stamped the "Happy Anniversary" stamp (which is from Papertrey Ink. I can't remember the name of the stamp set off the top of my head.) in black in on white cardstock then ran it through the Swiss Dot embossing folder before die cutting it with a Spellbinders circle die.
The dove stamp is from Inkadinkadoo I covered the heart between the doves with a cardstock punched heart and added a couple more along the edge of the large heart.. The punch is from Creative Memories.
