Think of A Number-Daring Cardmakers Challenge

 Good Morning and happy Friday!

Welcome back to my blog for another Daring Cardmakers Challenge. This weeks challenge is called ;

Think of a Number

This weeks challenge is set by DT member Kathy, she would like you to make one or more numerals the stars of your card in some way this time. It could be for one of those 'special number' birthdays or anniversaries. Using a background formed from numbers or perhaps you could even make a number shaped card.


I decided to create a birthday card for my neice who turns 20 next month. I die cut a square shape out of a black piece of card and then die cut some numbers into the  top half. This would give me some random number shapes within the card a bit like waste. I then die cut the number 20 at the bottom and adhered a small piece of pink glitter card at the back of it to make the numbers stand out a bit. I mounted the square piece of card onto my main card using foam tape and adding in any extra bits for some of the numerals. I wanted to add a cute and quirky character to my card and decided the toucan from Janet Kleins Strange Birds stamp set was perfect. I stamped and coloured the toucan using Ohuhu brush pens and then fussy cut it out. So then I wanted my bird to sit on a branch and decided to use one of the flower stems from Janet Kleins Trois Fleurs stamp set and added a few extra hand drawn leaves. Now the colouring was done and my bird was sitting nicely on a branch I adhered it to my main card. To finish it off I added a sentiment from the Rise Up stamp set also designed by Janet for Aall and Create.



Here is a close up of the card.
