4th birthday



 My twins are turning 4 tomorrow!!!  See my last post for the card for the older of the two.  She loves pink! but the younger loves bright, deep colors.  She's got a lot of personality, so this bold card is for her.  Twins are different people, right, so they can't have the same type of card!
I used red glimmer mist to create the background.  I laid hibiscus ghost shapes on the paper and misted the glimmer mist over top of them.  It made a really fun bold background.  I also used gold glimmer mist on the #4, unfortunately the camera didn't pick up the glittery look of either mist.

Challenges:
Creative Inspirations #188--red for remembrance
Sweet Sketch Wednesday #179--sketch
Crafty Ann's Challenge #78--bingo (I chose the row: gems, ribbon, flowers)

Make it Monday #90--Creating focal point sentiments with die cuts and stamps

Supplies:
Stamps: Papertrey Ink "Big Birthday Wishes"
Dies: Papertrey Ink "By the Numbers" die
Glimmer mists; red and silver/gold

  4. Hi Heather, what a lovely idea with your two different cards for the girls. Yes they are twins but they are also individuals which is great. Isn't how their tastes are so different. This is a lovely birthday card and hope they both have a wonderful birthday. Thanks so much for sharing your card with us at Sweet Sketch Wednesday and good luck.
    Hugs

  10. Hi Heather! I just love your adorable card, but I'm afraid it won't qualify for our challenge at Our Creative Corner because we have a limit of 3 other challenge entries. If you would like to enter another card for us, you still have time! Hugs, Marcy
