Two by Two Challenge at A Place to Start

Time for another great challenge over at A Place to Start.  The theme of this challenge is as always anything goes with the optional twist of : two  by two.

These are my birthday cards for two special little boys  in your family who are  twins and turn 10 in March.  It is always a challenge for their birthday 

I like the cards to be similar but different. 





I used Tim Holtz Hipster stamps to create the card.  I used similar papers in the cards and many of the same embellishments. I coloured the gears with Copic Markers and Distress Ink.  I added gears, diamond glaze, wooden numbers, and a sentiment to complete the card.

They were fun cards to make and always a pleasure to make them for their birthday.

Thank you for stopping by and have a creative month.  Hope you will join us this month for this challenge.
