Scrapbooking for Twins (and a Sale!)




When Becky Fleck announced this challenge on her blog, I decided to jump in and make a couple of pages to enter in to the contest. The first page was for my daughter, Natalie. I used this awesome digistamp from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff "It's A Girl Thing" set, printed twice, colored and layered it with pop dots for dimension. Go grab this adorable set now-Lindsay has her WHOLE STORE on sale for 40% off from tonight at midnight, through midnight on the 12th! It's a great opportunity to pick up some of her fabulous sets for a FABULOUS price! (Sorry to cyber-yell, I am just super excited about this sale!)For both pages, I used papers from The Paper Studio's Fairytale Princess Glitter Stack- I love it for pretty, girly pages!

The second page is for my other twin (or twinkie, as I call them ;-) ), Cecilia. I changed the elements up a bit, but did my best to make the page very similar. My favorite element on this page is the yummy felt ribbon with the tulips sewn on. She wanted the green butterflies, and even punched them out herself!

The challenges that I am entering these pages in are:

Pagemaps- sketch

Aimee's Challenges: something for the girls

Cupcake Crafts: Dazzle Us (Natalie's page has glitter on the trees, and I used a pink Martha Stewart Glitter pen on the butterfly's spots)

Cute Daisy May:ribbons or Bows (I used ribbon on both pages)

Pollycraft Challenges:Ribbons and Bling (Bling-y patterned paper, MS Glitter Pen, and ribbon)

Scrap It With A Song: Girls Just Wanna Have Fun (Both pages are my Girls having fun at the playground!)


Now, head on over to all of my fellow dt members' blogs for lots of inspiration and a freebie!
