Sid's 2nd birthday

Today is my youngest son's 2nd birthday. Two years ago he was born at 31 weeks gestation weighing just 2lbs 7oz. When he was born he looked like a tiny monkey but he gained weight slowly and began to grow. Today he is just like any other boisterous 2 year old and enjoying his birthday!!

I made this card for him last night using woodware jungle fun stamps which I have had for ages but never got around to using. Coloured with my usual promarkers, bit of glossy accents on the leaves and bananas and some stickles to add some glitter.

a little lilac number


Here is a little Magnolia Tilda card I came up with the other night once the kids were tucked up in bed.
And here is the inside of the card which I have made to match the front of the card.
I have used promarkers to colour Tilda in, added some stickles to the candles and matted her onto lilac card from papermania.The green spotted card I have used is from Kanban, a few clear gems on top of the Martha Stewart punched panel and some Wild Orchid Crafts roses finish the card.
