It's twins!!!

Hi! I hope you are having a great week!

My cousin in Spain had twins a few weeks ago, so there was no doubt that I was going to try and make a new baby x 2 card!!! my first card for twins...so excited!




For this card, I looked around for Twin digis or stamps, but there wasn't any that I really liked, so I decided (with the help of Google!) to flip and merge this digi, Spit Happens, from Mo Manning, which I've had for a long time. I'm really happy how it turned out. I also added the babies' initials to their T-shirts!

I coloured the image with my Promarkers and Flexmarkers.

Hi!

So, this is the card:


I used the sketch for this week's CAS on Sunday challenge.



The image is a clear stamp I've had for a long time. I'm pretty sure it was a freebie from a magazine a few years ago and it's from Somebunny to Love.

Patterned paper is a very old one, freebie from magazine a few years ago

Hi! Another week has passed and another week that I've been so busy that I've just managed to make one card... I guess that one card is better than none! what I did in between tasks this week is changing the look on my blog... I decided to make it more bright and crafty looking... I hope you like it!

Time is really going so fast... Spring is almost here! well.. It's still freezing out there, but the sun seems to come out a lot more. I just can't wait for the better weather, although I'm not one to make a lot of winter cards... I tend to use bright colours and flowers all year round, it just make me happy!
Today I bring you a happy spring card... in reds, maroon and turquoise colours... I really love this colour combination!



The image is a new acquisition, a rubber stamp from Stamping Bella called "Lulu loves Poppies".
I really love Stamping Bella...  I would love to get all of their stamps! only if  I could...

I coloured the image with Promarkers and Flexmarkers.

Stamping Bella "Lulu love poppies" rubber stamp
Memento ink pad in Tuxedo black
Promarkers and Flexmarkers to colour stamp
American Crafts "5th & Frollic" paper pad
