A simple 30th card

I've made a couple of simple cards today, as my Auntie asked me for a few and she doesn't like fussy stuff!  Here's one of them...


I've cut the card base with my large Go Kreate dies - it's about 14.5cm across I think, but circle cards always seem small even when they're not lol!  The papers are First Edition 'boho chic', sentiment is Stampin' Up and the numbers are from the fab Birthday Numbers stamp set from Pink Gem Designs.  The edge of the sentiment strip was trimmed with scalloped scissors and I added a bit of bling from my stash... I coloured the numbers with a Coral promarker, and edged the numbers with a Sakura clear stardust pen, not that you can tell from the photo!

I'm entering my card for the following challenges:

Bit of a rushed post again... I'm cooking for a change (hubby usually does it!) and I still want to squeeze in some visits to your blogs.  Hope you've all had a lovely day :o)

Hi Lisa

Perfect CAS card... Love the round shape and the 30th circle..And that paper is just right for it! Lots of people don't like fussy cards...and they're generally the most expensive in the shops!
