60th card

[Ali Doc]

Please can anyone help. I have completely lost my card making mojo. I need to make a 60th for DSs grandma. Fancy some bling and swirls but just not sure how. Have to make it this weekend. Thanks

Maybe make the card in the shape of the 60.. and then bling that up ??

Hi,

I've just made a 60th card for my husband. I know it is difficult to work a '60' into the design - so I did an A5 size card with a design of champagne bottle (template off the Craft Robo forum) with bubbles and fizz and cork flying and a Happy Birthday sentiment. Then for the 60 I used an acetate wrapper with a 60 cut out for the front. I outlined the 60 in stickles. The overall effect was just what I wanted.

If I ever get to find the camera I'll post a pic !!

Hi Ali

Me again, I've just found the camera.

Here is the card - hope its of some help.

what I was trying to say is that you can do whatever design you wanted - girly - swirly - flowery - whatever, then the sixty can be brought in by the acetate cover.
