60 Amazing Years!

Photo Details

Poster: stinkincute

Today's Clean and Simple challenge (CAS191) is a look at trendy stuff - this week PLAIDS! I love plaids - they can be found all over my house! Plaid fabrics were even the decorating inspiration for my great room and nursery.
For today's card, I wanted the plaid to be the main focus of the card. My aunt's 60 suprise party is this weekend, so this card is for her. I used number dies to cut out the 60 but used the negative instead. I liked how this made the plaid pop out. I added a small panel of white embossed with Swiss dots to provide a base for the number panel.
Thanks for looking today!

Wow - I truly love your card! Every detail is perfect. Love that the plaid is behind the cut-out numbers, and I love the Swiss dots, as well.
