Milestone Birthday

Missing A Big One

My Aunt came to visit me the other day and I was so glad she did, as she started  talking about her sister in laws big birthday coming up!! I'd made her a lovely card but it wasn't a big one, so oh heck!! here I go, what can I do for her. After Sheilah had gone I went into my craft room and started to rummage around and couldn't think of anything so I went to bed.

Next day I needed to get it done as her birthday was close. I looked at the large number and dies and then the milestone moments came to mind and that was it my idea came alive pretty quickly.

When I die cut the two numbers I wasn't happy with them as the stamping was a bit patchy then I had a light bulb moment and grabbed my old faithful embossing folder and all was saved. Sorry for the use of retired products, but I'm sure you could adjust the colour scheme to suit your own preferences.

The materials used are:

Card stock: Coastal cabana (r), whisper white

Ink: Coastal cabana (r)

DSP: 2013/5 In colors (r)

Stamp sets: Milestone moments, number of years

Embossing folders: Perfect polka dots (r),  Seaside

Framelits: Large numbers

Thinlits: Happy Birthday

Ribbon: Glitter (r)

Accessories: Lace doilies (r), white perfect accents

Happy crafting

Will be back again soon with more cards
