I made this card for someone who recently celebrated an incredible number of birthdays. I decorated the stitched oval panel with a Tim Holtz stencil and matching ink that looks like bubble wrap, and decorated the die-cut large numbers with little black gems. The background was embossed with an older Cuttlebug birthday embossing folder and the little flower was done with SU! mini punches and a cut-off portion of a die-cut stem. The sentiment is a pre-printed one from SSS matted with black cardstock.
I will share this with

Here in PA we're having another snowstorm today with very cold temperatures, so it's a good day to stay indoors and craft! Thanks for stopping by and I hope it's warm where you are! Take care everyone.

Super card and that's a good number of years to celebrate 😊. I have that birthday embossing folder, must bring it out of retirement.
Wow Carol! This card is fantastic and certainly an epic one for such a wonderful milestone! I love the added gems to the numbers and all of that lovely texture! I know this person will love it!
Beautifully festive!
Fabulous birthday card for an octogenarian! Take care and stay safe. We also have a storm coming xxx
This birthday card is just adorable and the lady that has this epic age surely has loved it. This is my Mum's age, too :) The stencilled paper under the number looks so cool!! Love so much the black gems to decorate the numbers, and that cute flower makes me smile! Beautiful embossed background too, all works so well together!
Hope that the snowstorm goes away soon, so you could enjoy some warm sun :)
Hugs and love from so far!
