Wishing you a Happy Birthday...Pink or Blue?

Hi again, everyone!  Last week (Holy Week), I had a lot of Birthday parties to attend and had to make several cards for each of the celebrants.  Among them are these 2 cards that I gave to twin sisters.  I decided to use two sets of colors based on the color of the candle sets that I gave them as gifts.  I handcut the flowers from a designer paper and matted them with a coordinating cardstock for stability.  As you can see, I also incorporated some embossing, used a Fiskars Border Punch, silk ribbon, gems and stickles (glitter) for added dimension on the flower.  The sentiment is from TPC Studio.  This card is entered into this challenge:

1.  Simon Say Stamp featuring "Anything Goes"

It was a bit of a rush making these 2 cards.  It still took a lot of time to make which caught me by surprise since I didn't have to stamp an image and color it.  I don't know why but I simply could not make myself do a super simple card...LOL  Anyway, I added the flowers on the gift bags using my Gypsy on my Cricut machine.  The flower is from "A Walk in my Garden" cart.  Anyway, hope you like these 2 cards and I'll have a couple more to post after this...God bless and would appreciate your comments...
