Numbers?

  The current challenge at  Tag Tuesday   is NUMBERS ...  Here is the brief ... I would like to see Numbers on your tags, as in the title, I mean more than one number, I don't mind how many numbers you use, but you must have more than 3. They can be all the same or all different... On my desk, I happened to have a box of old postage stamps ... and there were numbers of course, as each stamp displays its value.  Here are my tags for the Numbers challenge.  The first is  a collage of the white rabbit from Alice in Wonderland, standing on a podium with a random set of numbers  . The second features  a lovely set of stamps from New Zealand , again with the three numbers prominently displayed , complemented by a cut out from an old greeting card.  Thanks, Sandie from tag Tuesday - a different and challenging theme.
