How ironic that I needed two birthday cards for people both turning 70 this week, so the new Celebration stamp set and Large Number Dies were perfect! This card will be sent to my sister-in-law's brother who loves all things beachy.
Creative Nugget: The base was cut with the Side Step Card Die and each panel lined with blue card stock and papers from the By the Shore Paper Collection cut with a Leafy Edged Border Die to create the sand dunes. The sentiments from the Celebration set were embossed right on the designer papers and cut with Pierced Circles Dies, Circles Dies and Layered Lacey Squares Dies. I love the new Large Number Dies which were used to cut "70" from white card stock and sponged with distress ink while still in the die. I found a gelli print in my stash that was used for the sea grass cut with the Grass Border Die and the fence was cut with the Fence Die.
I can't believe that my hubby and I will be married 31 years this year! Where has the time gone?
Creative Nugget: Pink and green distress inks were used to color sheets of mixed media paper from which were cut the Circle Scalloped Rectangle panel, the Pennant Flags, and the embossed small Layered Heart. Pierced Rectangle Dies were used to cut panels from papers from the Shabby Rose Collection, my very favorite! These were stitched and layered onto the card. Thirty-one was cut with the new pierced Large Numbers Dies and the sentiments from the Celebration stamp set were embossed. Bitty Blossoms die cuts and small pearls were added to finish the card.
