I love how versatile the the “Number of Years” stamp set, from the Stampin’ Up! Occasions Catalogue is for making quick and easy Birthday cards.  I got this card from Sonya van Stee, a demonstrator on my team from St. Catherines, Ontario.  I love how she used the Shabby chic look of the letters and matched her background paper to match.

For the background papers, Sonya used some of the stamps from a new stamp set, also from the Occasions Catalogue, called “Timeless Texture“.  And she also just inked up the paper with her inkpad for a truly shabby look.  And although this card is quick to put together, I love that she took just a minute to round the corners of the main piece.  And the stamped piece is attached with Washi Tape to add to the Shabby Chic look.
