Twins 1st Birthday Cards

Today I had to make 1st Birthday cards for twins, a boy and a girl. I was stuck at first and wasted £12.99 on a Giraffe die as I thought I could use a giraffe but I then thought it would be too plain. I went through my stamps and found two Elzybells stamps that I thought would be perfect as they both had two bears on which could each resemble the twins.



I used large 8"x8" square cards so I had lots of room as the images are quite big. Both images are from Elzybells and have been coloured with Lyra Rembrandt Polycolour Pencils, blended with Sansodor. The wording was done on the computer so I could personalise it. The patterned cardstock is DCWV from an 8x8" glittered mat stack. I used a Quickutz Die for the photo corners on the top card and added Papermania gems/dots to the cards too.
