Sweet sixty

This ordered card was a real bingo. I didn't get much specs for it, just that the recipient's favourite colour was blue. In the end, it turned out to be just what was wanted.

I layered two paper flowers and fixed then with a large lilac gem brad. I wrapped a length of silver embroidery floss to criss cross the brad to add some sparkle. I backed the flower with a piece of white card, deckled the edge and added colour with blue chalk. I mounted the flower panel onto light blue scroll card and cut the numbers with Cricut from silver card (didn't have suitable number stickers or peel-offs, but realised that hey, I can make my own :) )
