More Fun for the 50th!

Here are a couple other things I made for my brother-in-law's surprise party last weekend.  Again, I used the Designer Rosette die to make these fun picks that were put into plants for the table centerpieces.  I made a bunch of them and the Rosette die made them so quick!!

They are about 5-1/2" in diameter.  And the center circles are the 3" and the 3-1/2" dies.  And, the 50 was made with the (retired) Simple Numbers.

 

I also made about forty of these little favors for the place settings at the tables too.  I used the retired Petal Card die for the pocket - another die that I haven't found a good replacement yet!  And the 50 was stamped with the Memorable Moments stamp set - yep, something current!! :)

Fun 50th Banner!

On Saturday my sister had a surprise 50th birthday party for her husband.  And I made this banner for her to hang at her house.  Each piece is made from a rectangle, about 5-1/2" x 9".  Then I cut in half at an angle, flipped to the other side, and glued back over the other piece.

 

Each banner has a rosette made from the Rosette Big Shot die.  

And because of the larger size, I needed to use some of my (retired) larger numbers - these are the Simple Numbers.  And I also used a retired alphabet strip for the TH. 

 

I also used my (retired) Serif Alphabet dies for the other letters.  I guess there are just some things that retire that you just can't replace!
