50th Card
I wanted a 50th birthday card for someone special, but I couldn't find one that was "just right" at the shops...It was the inspiration I needed to pull out my craft gear again and get to work. I've created templates for the "50" and went to work from there.... If you need to create a card for anything 50 - a Birthday, Wedding anniversary or other landmark event - start with the "50" and build the card around it to suit the colours (eg gold for a 50th wedding anniversary), event, and personality of the recipient.
STEP 1
Print the "50" templates onto the BACK of two different coloured pieces of A4 card.
There are two templates - one for the front and one back of each number. They can be downloaded below in both pdf or jpg versions. They are A4 size.

Design and assemble your card. I used "core'dinations" card for my front "50"...it was brown with a pink inside so that I could sandpaper off some of the outer brown colour, leaving the pink visible.
