Anniversary Card for my Husband Discussion Photo

Hi Everyone,
Well, today is not only the first day of the Minnesota State Fair, its also my husbands and mine anniversary today.
As I usually make cards for my family out of wood, I decided to make a unique card for my husband and here it is:

This is based on the Scottish quaich which are small, wooden drinking cups made for special occasions. On the rim is a line from a Robert Browning poem, "Grow old with me for the best is yet to be..."
The cup is made out of a section of a maple tree branch from a friends yard and Im going to oil it later on today.
So, Happy Anniversary Jim and thanks for 32 great years.
Best,
VW
