When making their special card, I was inspired by Becky's Oh, Hello card. I love the way she used the Tea Lace Paper Doilies and Flower Trim (page 5, Seasonal Catalogue), with touches of rhinestone bling.

If you want to stamp numbers, you can't go past Memorable Moments - it is a really versatile stamp set as it also has "Happy", "Birthday" and "Anniversary". This stamp set is great for honouring special occasions.

Here's a close up of all the little details...

40th Anniversary Card

Lots of pretty here! This card would also make a very lovely Mothers Day card, just switch out the "40" and stamp "for my wonderful mother" from Delightful Dozen (page 141, Annual Catalogue) or a simple "Happy Mothers Day" from Teeny Tiny Sentiments (page 133, Annual Catalogue).
