My cousin and his wife are now the proud parents of beautiful twin girls and here's the card I made for them.
I used Funky Fairys free download paper, which was matted onto silver mirri card to give a narrow border.
Before printing the cute baby girl decoupage sheet, I nipped into PSP (Paint Shop Pro) and reversed the topper so I could have mirror images for my front panel.
I did actually do a wee bit of decoupage to add a little dimension, only one layer I know, but regular readers here know it isn't my favourite thing so ... my theory is that one is better than none ... isn't it.?
The names were added using silver peel off letters.
Inside I again matted the pretty paper onto silver mirri card and then added a clear adhesive sticker onto the last scrap before popping it in the bottom corner.
Challenge #34 over at Funky Fairys this week is 'Recycling' and the bonnie pink twill ribbon was removed from a t-shirt before heading off to the wardrobe in the sky, and the buttons are also recycled from a cardigan, so that keeps me in with the theme.

Hi Max,
Sorry I'm a bit late getting my comment on. The card is gorgeous and I love the way you have included the twins names. A special card to be treasured so the twins can see it when they are older. Well done as usual.
