Inspired By #163 - take a number

 

Take a number?  I couldn't help myself - I had all these wonderful Pooh quotes left in my brain from last week - I couldn't think of a more perfect time to use this one... 

These number dies have been in my stash for years - might be one of the first sets I bought -
not sure who made them, but there are loads of sets out there!  
I've 'colored' mine with a few pattern-making sets from EH.

I've chosen 100 ... what number will you take?  I can't wait to see how you put it into your design!  Now, let's go see which my teamies have taken for IB163!

I thought it was patterned paper that created you’re fantastic, bold 100! You have stolen my heart yet again, from design to quote, this is SO perfect!

You got me again...that is one of my favorite Pooh quotes EVER. So with tears running down my face, just wanted to say, you blew what little mind I have left.

Sorry to hear about your dear friend Michelle, seems we loose important people out of out life much sooner in these wird times...and have more time to realise what we loose with them...
Your quote on this card is one that I had in my hands two days ago and I couldn't get myself to stamp it on what I had made...It will take me some time before this one feels right to be used by me...
Your card is wonderful and all fits perfect togetherl what a great way to use the numbers! I enjoy seeing your artwork; it is inspiring!
Stay safe and give yourself time to heal when you need it... Gerrina

I love your patterned numbers and the wonky placement! The quote, the colors, the cleans design, all fabulous!

Barb Ghig said...

What a great quote, Michele! I love that you chose a pierced/scalloped border and the patterns on the numbers are fabulous!

Anita in France said...

Pooh was such a wise old bear wasn't he, Michele! You've used this quote so simply and beautifully with those bold numbers to support these wonderful words ... rather perfect really! Hugs, Anita :)

Jeanne said...

Wonderful card, beautiful sentiment/quote. I admire your cardmaking skills. :)

JulieP said...

This is precious! Those look a lot like a set of older PTI numbers that I have in my stash.

Bonnie said...

I love the way you've added patterns to the numbers and the fun arrangement-like their dancing! Another fantastic Pooh quote too! I LOVE this!

Bobby said...

Of course you'd color your own numbers instead of using patterned paper and you did so beautifully with just the right amount of pattern. This is just so sweet and wonderful, Michele.

Wonderful quote and so nice to see it given centre stage. The numbers are great too, love the different patterns and colours and that you have mounted them all wonky. I would really struggle to do that on a card. Everything has to be straight and measured but of cause it usually goes wrong! xx

nancy littrell said...

Your numbers are so sweet and perfect with the adorable Pooh quote, my friend. TFS Love and Hugs....Nancy

Recently I have met some amazing 100 year olds, still living at home and pretty much independant.... who knows, that could be us one day lol.

Nora Noll said...

I guess I am the only one who doesn't want to live to be 100? Most people I know over the age of 90 have lost most of their marbles or they cannot walk and be independent. Neither sounds fun to me. Your card is just amazing. I LOVE that quote and those fun numbers really jazz up this simple card. (I sounded like an oldie their, didn't I-jazz up!)

Brenda said...

I love, love, love this card Michele! This is another Pooh quote that I love because it is so true, you always want to live one day minus so you never have to be without that loved one. I know people don't want to live to be 100, but I know so many people who lived to be 100 or older and did wonderful! Don't think I will be one of those people, but I love it that some age gracefully and live beyond 100. And speaking of 100, I love the way you did your numbers! Hugs, Brenda

Silke Ledlow said...

Perfect combination....such a sweet card Michele!!!

Papercraft Boutique said...

Another wonderful quote from Winnie the Pooh on your sweet card, Michele!
You colored the numbers!? That’s amazing! The fun patterns, the tilted numbers, and the bright dots make the card look so playful!

donna mikasa said...

LOVE that quote--well, any Pooh quote!--and love your card. Wish I knew someone who reached that milestone.
