I received a request last week to create a Happy 100th Birthday card. And of course I said certainly!
I’ve held on to a wonderful stamp set (and dies) since they came out in the 2016 Occasions catalog called Number of Years. It’s always been my go-to stamp set for special birthdays and anniversaries.

Most unfortunately, this morning I couldn’t put my hands on the dies so ……… I “had to” fussy cut the ‘1-0-0’ images. I think I did OK but it certainly wasn’t as easy as using a die and the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine!
I “stamped off” each stamp for the image inside the card so there would be a softer look and not be too bright and bold.
