numbers game

There have been some big number birthdays within my family and friends. Here's a few of the cards I've made with a number being the main focus.








The two 50th cards were a remake of this card I did previously; just different colours. The 21st card was inspired by Pinterest which led me to this clever design.

I don't know about you, but I am hooked on the Olympics! As a family we have a keen interest in swimming, but during the Olympics I will totally get into any sport watching the drama play out is fascinating!

Supplies: 


Purple 50th birthday: Stamps -  Papertrey Ink big birthday wishes, modern wood mats; Ink - Martha Stewart sweat pea, Versafine onyx black; Card - Papertrey Ink plum pudding; Dies - Papertrey Ink mat stack 5; Simon Says Stamp oh happy day; Papertrey Ink impression plate


Blue 50th birthday: Stamps -  Papertrey Ink big birthday wishes, modern wood mats; Ink - Amuse bermuda, Versafine onyx black; Card - Stampin' Up baja breeze; Dies - Papertrey Ink mat stack 5; Simon Says Stamp oh happy day; Papertrey Ink impression plate


21st birthday: Stamps - Hero Arts designer woodgrain; Ink - Versamark; Card - Papertrey Ink smokey shadow, Stampin' Up tempting turquoise; Cricut alphalicious cartridge

  2. Fab cards - love the numbers embossing folder you used - where do you purchase your PTI products ?
    I do especially love the colour combo on the last card - it really "pops"

  3. Hi Suzie, thank you for your lovely comment! I buy PTI direct from them in the US. I don't like the postal charges or customs ones either but the products are fab!
