Moving Along with the Times (MAWTT) - Add a Number

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends

Good morning. I hope you are well and that the weather is being kind, We are having a short break in London so this the first of some scheduled posts from me. I will catch up with everyone when we get back. If all has gone well we should have been to a performance of Much Ado About Nothing at the Globe theatre and today we are booked to see the Pink Floyd exhibition at the V&A museum.

Today also sees the start of a new challenge on the Moving Along with the Times Challenge blog (MAWTT) the theme is Add a Number. This is the card I made for my mother-in-law's 90th birthday she adores poppies.


The background paper was in my stash. All the mats and layers were cut with the Double Pierced Squares from Creative Expressions. 


This is another Creative Expressions die. 


This poppy stamp is by Woodware. I masked off the front poppies so I could stamp the poppy behind. They were coloured with my Spectrum Noir Sparkle pens. 


I have had these number dies for a while. Not long after I got them I lost the "th" die so I cut "with" now and cut it down. 


My mother-in-law did love this card she had it back in June for her actual birthday.


Enjoy the rest of the week. 

Take care. 

Hugs Jackie

Hi Jackie,
what a very beautiful card for your MIL.
Your design is super and wonderful, and your stamping and colouring of the poppies is excellent they are almost 3D.
Thank you for saying about the Pink Floyd exhibition as my hubby has always loved them, and I am now thinking of taking him for as a treat.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
