When age is just a number . . .

Hi Everyone. Nancy Wethington here with a birthday card for any age.

I've used the numbers from the

Mixed Media Fragments Set

There are so many ways to use this set.

As a background for other elements,

specific numbers or alphabets on a layout or card

or those circles for framing tiny photos.

(I used the tiny circles to frame my son in a group school photo.)

For this card, since my girlfriends are all

*of a certain age*

and we don't care how old we are,

I'm using the entire number set.

I painted the chipboard with chalkboard paint.

While that was drying I started layering some

Graphic 45 paper

and fussy cutting flowers.

Every layer except the first one was popped up using

Crafty Foam Tape.

Once the chalkboard paint was dry,

I added Sparkle & Sprinkle embossing powder.

Heat set and then popped that up on the card front.

For the inside of the card, I used a 

Gypsy Soul Laser Cut Banner Border Strip

and did the same process as the numbers.

These Banner Border Strips are so flexible

and appropriate for almost any project.

I always have some on hand.

Once everything was put together

I added centers for the flowers

with prills and Stickles

and the card is ready to send.

Thanks for visiting with me today.
