It's Twins !

Sorry I've been so long posting again: Had my husband in cardiology intensive care half the week after being rushed in Sunday morning with chest pains! It wasn't too serious and, after the op he was already booked for, he is now home again. At the same time, his daughter had twins on Monday: All well and also home now. So a hectic week of ups and downs! Don't know when this will reach them but here's the A5 size (roughly 6x8.5") card I made to celebrate the twin's arrival. We are looking forward to going over to the UK in a couple of weeks to meet them in person :)

Challenges: Sandrine Vachon - sketch; Caardvarks - embossing + stamping; Create 4 fun - baby card; Tuesday Throwdown - Dry embossing; Cute Card Thursday - Recycle (the 'ribbon' under the flower is the lining tape from the sticky paper ribbon border as well as me using 'scrap' bits of Bazzill and other card).

Used: pearlised green, pink and blue card (Diamond craft); Cuttlebug with Floral Screen and Paisley embossing folders; Bazzill sandbox swiss embossed card; Hampton Art 'Our Baby' stamps; Brilliance inks - pearlescent orchid and pearlescent blue; Fancy Pants pins; and bits from stash with printed text.

Caardvarks - Sketch 1

This card follows sketch 1 of the latest Caardvarks challenge. I'm just not sure why the text has disappeared on the photo: It is fine in real life! Honest!
Used: Offcuts and recycled bits of card and paper, handcut poinsettia with a string of seed beads, CdE stamp with gold Brilliance.Voici ma carte selon le sketch 1 pour le challenge chez "Caardvarks". Je ne sais pas pourquoi ma texte a disparu sur la photo: Il bien existe sur la vraie carte! J'ai utilisé: Des chutes et recyclage de carton et papiers, poinsettia découpé à la main, petit perles sur un fil, tampon de Compagnie des Elfes avec encre Brilliance en d'or.
