With a number

Hi there! The current challenge over at Allsorts this week is to use a name or a number on your card.  Here is the card I made for Meg's boyfriend on his 21st. I used stamps from Honey Doo crafts and watercolour markers. The background paper was from Craftwork cards tartan pack. the sentiment was computer generated (Can't believe I don't have a 21st stamp!)
My second card was a commission from a friend who wanted a 50th birthday card for a Francophile who loves flowers. This is what I came up with. The background stamps were Waltzing Mouse ones (no longer available) The sentiment is from Little Claire, the Eiffel tower was a do crafts stamp and the leaves are from Inkylicious.  The background was created with ink dusters.
I added prima flowers and dots of liquid pearls. All dies are spellbinders.
Thanks for looking!

Both cards are perfect for our Allsorts theme this week, the first a great masculine creation and the second with Tour Eiffel perfect for that recipient. Many thanks for joining in.

Two great cards Sally, and what a beautiful stamp with the bottle and glass intertwined with the grapes and flourishes, and love the tartan background, and then the Eiffel tower which looks wonderful with the french sentiment background, and the pretty black SB border and sentiment plate stand out beautifully. x
