A Twinkle Tots Birthday - I'm Loving These Cuties


 Happy Wednesday Everyone!

Can you believe that tomorrow is Thanksgiving already?
Where did the month of November go?

I hope you all enjoyed the Belles 'n Whistles Blog hop
the other day!
Thank you all for all your sweet comments!

I thought I'd post a couple of birthday cards that I made using
The Greeting Farm's
Twinkle Tots!

These little ones are just too adorable for words
but I think you might already know that.

A few months ago, I had started to make a couple of cards
in the smaller size, 4.25 X 5.5 so that I could eventually
put them all together to make a complete set.
Of course I wanted them to be ALL birthday cards.
Well I had sort of forgotten about doing that,
So the other day the thought crossed my mind
and I decided to create a couple more for the set that I'm building.

I couldn't help but to use
the adorable Twinkle Tots for some of these cards.

This is what I came up with.....


I decided to use Izzy, and some very simple papers to go with her.
But, the main focus paper I wanted to add some flair.
So I created my own!
I used a Scandinavian Stamp wheel and created the printed paper
then colored it using my copic markers.
Now Izzy is standing in her own little Scandinavian Paradise!
I have to admit that I'm especially fond of this card
probably for the fact that it's got a touch of my own heritage in it!

Next I have made a card using the ever so cute
Madelynn
She's got sass I tell you!
What do you think?


I decided to keep her in some soft blues & browns
and absolutely fell in love with the outcome!
The Birthday sentiment that I used for both cards are
from TGF's "Happy Chef" set.

I hope you've enjoyed your visit,
Wishing you all a VERY HAPPY THANKSGIVING tomorrow.
And if you aren't celebrating it,
Well then, you can eat Turkey and pretend! LOL
