Welcome Twins!

Hi everyone!  My aunt called me last week and asked me to make a card for her.  Of course, I love making cards and so I gladly agreed.  She has a friend that just recently gave birth to twin girls!  How sweet.  I am honored that one of my creations will help to welcome these baby girls.

I decided to make a tri fold card since I wanted it to tie together in the middle with ribbon.  I had a great time making this card and I think it turned out beautifully.  I used a mixture of papers (all pink and white of course) and lots of ribbon and flowers.  I painted some Stampin Up! chipboard flowers and hearts with acrylic paint and then sprayed them with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist in pearl.  I am not sure you can see the sparkle in the pictures.

Here is a picture of the card slightly open.  The onesies and the bird cage were all cut with my Cricut using the 'Straight From The Nest' cartridge.  I cut the banners for the outside sentiment with the Die-namics Fishtail Stax from My Favorite Things.  I added lots of Hero Arts pearls and a few gems.  There is a clear pink Bazzil button threaded with twine in the center of the crochet flower.

This is the inside of the card with the flaps open.  I searched the internet for a cute sentiment about twins since I didn't have a stamp.  I found this cute one and printed it on my computer.  I added some more painted chipboard pieces and a couple of gems.  Cute!
