I guess I'm excited too because there is a woman in The Angel Card Project who's going to be 100 next month and I wanted to make her a really nice card. The idea started with a sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches #692 that has three blocks. I thought the numbers 100 would fit nicely in there. I had the idea to make her a shaker card too, and when I saw the Tic-Tac-Toe challenge over at Retro Rubber #257 (#rrcb257) the idea all came together. (See the pic below for the three I chose on the card.)
I wanted to also add that this is a really large card. A friend gave me a stationary set that included envelopes big enough to hold a 5.5" x 8.5" card, and that's the size of this. I needed this much space to pull off using these large numbers. But when you're 100, you deserve a really big card!
Here's my complete supply list:
- Stampin' Up! Number of Years (2018) Stamps & Dies
- Papertrey Lovely Lady Card Stock
- Papertrey Hibiscus Burst Ink
- SU! Bermuda Bay Card Stock
- Unknown Gingham Paper
- Unknown Floral Paper
- Sequins from Sparkle & Sprinkle
- Acetate Sheet from Kat Scrappiness
It's almost 1:00 a.m. now and I've got a Walmart Pick Up order for 7:00 a.m. I must get to bed! But it's been so fun playing along with the challenges!
Thanks so much for stopping by, and have a great day!
What a wonderful card Barb - crafting is addictive, especially when the house is quiet and have no distractions! Great use of the challenges too, btw.
