Traditionally a 6th anniversary gift is metal or sweets. So the first challenge is to create something using sweet or using metal.
I chose to use the ODBD set, Keep My Lamp Burning. This set is timeless because of all the promises we have from God being our refuge, strong tower or strength.
I colored the image using Pan Pastel chalks
I found the metal anchor charm at Wal-Mart's jewelry making section. (Thank you Becky!) The paper is by Glitz.
