Here's 3 cards for the price of one LOL!
I made a card for my Aunt Jean, liked how it turned out, so amended it for my card to my sister, and then Mum was looking one for her friend (also called Ruth) for her 80th. It's not very often I'll make cards virtually the same but figured I'd get away with it as none of them were likely to see the other's cards!
My image is an LOTV stamp, coloured with polychromo pencils and then popped up on foam pads. I've also added some splatters to the background with silver metallic paint. For the numbers, I stuck an extra set together to make them a bit stronger and then covered them with gloss and lots of glitter.

We've had a glorious few days with wall to wall sunshine and temps kicking 30 degrees - a nice change as we're usually on the wrong side of the Jetstream and miss all the sunny weather! Molly was a nightmare though, no matter how much shade we created in the garden she'd find the sunniest hottest spot and cook there until we chased her into the house! Here's a rare moment of her in the shade... Back to normality tomorrow though as it looks back to usual and rain due.

Three beautiful cards Lynne, I love how you’ve made them all a little bit different. Thanks for sharing the lovely photo of Molly. It’s a little bit cooler here today, thankfully. We even had a downpour for about 15 minutes earlier today. If I wasn’t driving at the time, I would have stood out in it!

Such great cards Lynne! I love that digital image. You've done a great job coloring them too. Sometimes it is really nice to make several of the same card, especially since we know that they'll never see the others. Each will be much appreciated! As for Molly, she is adorable in the sun or shade! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Word Art Wednesday. We love seeing what you've made! :)
They are fabulous cards Lynne and I always think that if a design works then do it again, and again!! Our boys didn't know what to do with themselves. Bo dug a hole in the border and burined himself in a shrub and Bumble flopped out in the kitchen. It's a bit cooler today though xx
What a great way to get 3 cards done from one idea, Lynne! Each one has it's only little flare. The light stencil on card 3 looks wonderful too. Thanks for joining us at Seize the Birthday and for using the Topping.
Spectacular cards, Lynne! Your coloring is superb and, as the Queen of Embellishments, you've added the perfect extras. I just know they will all be appreciated and treasured. I wouldn't doubt but that at least a couple of them will be set aside and saved because they're just too pretty to toss.
Stunning cards, Lynne, the recipients will love them. Ah, just look at Miss Molly. Such a hot time for our furry friends. Jo x
Fab cake cards, Lynne! It’s great when you can get away with making similar cards, saves on brain power thinking up new ideas. Thanks for playing along with us at Seize The Birthday 🥳
These are absolutely delicious cards! Love your wonderful frames and flower accents. Thanks for playing along with my topping at Seize the Birthday.
