I made this card for my brother-in-law who will be turning 81 soon. I die-cut the numbers using SU! large number dies (r) and heat-embossed them with silver and gold embossing powder; using an older (r) SU! mini background stamp set. I matted the black piece with some gold matte cardstock, then matted that piece with a piece of mirror silver card. The striped dsp is (r) from SU! and the pre-printed sentiment was purchased from Simon Says Stamp.
I'll enter this into these challenges:
The Craft Rocket Challenge #96 - dots and/or stripes
( I used both dots and stripes)
(I used the retired SU! large number dies)
Thanks for stopping by and I hope your day is a great one!
