66th Anniversary

Recently I have had a number of friends request cards for very special occasions.  Just adding a number makes it special.  I am limited in what I have available, but the numbers from the Cuttlebug Olivia set work quite well.  My friend requested something in red - I was a bit skeptical, but I do like the result.  It is combined with ivory cs and and ivory flower.  I just received my order for Spellbinders Exquisite Circles - I am going to have to work with them a bit to figure out the best way to use them - the larger (red) circle is more of a cut out than en edge - I cut a larger circle first, then used the new die for the cut out.    Does any one have more ideas - or is there a tutorial some where?  I have not had a chance to look.
