On the double ....

.... there are a few times a year where friends' birthdays are so close together that I "cheat" and make identical cards for each person.  Thankfully, they don't know each other, so they'll never know!!

Here's what I made for my March birthday pals, Jocelyn and Olwen:


I'm entering the following challenges: Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge ("Use more than one die or punch"), Creative Knockouts ("Spring is on the Way"), Cute Card Thursday ("Spring is on the Way"), Moving Along with the Times ("Handmade or Die-Cut Flowers"), Fab 'n' Funky Challenges ("Flowers") and Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge ("Layer it Up").

I recently bought this WPlus9 stamp and die set and I absolutely love it - so versatile and I've made quite a few cards with it - many variables for leaves/flowers/centres, etc.  And I actually bought the die set so no fussy cutting those flowers!! The only problem I have is that I don't really have any pigment inks which make for more opaque cover if you stamp a centre on a flower - so I guess I know what my next bulk crafting purchase will be.  I had to be quite cunning about the way I combined the colours so they didn't bleed through or discolour - here's a close-up:
