confirmation card for twins

This weeks I have made some cards for the Sukkersøt's challenge "3d effect". We are going to Tromsø to Tom's family to be part of an confirmation, Frits and Charlotte's. So I have made one girl and one boys card. First u see my card to Charlotte.

As always I have used pleny of everything and inspired of Ronda, I have tried to use some of my old treasures.

On the first page I have several kinds of ribbon, some Prima flowers, a picture of some rose's Tom gave me the other day, gold charms and different letters.

Since the challenge is 3D, I have tried to make layers onto layers..

This card is also into:

ABC challenge "U is for".

Cute card thursday "someone special"

Sir stampalot challenge "butterflies and blossom"

There were so many things I wanted this card to have so I had to make it like a tiny album. Inside the card I sewed one more card, so on first side our blessing will come, next 3 pages are a poem my mother got for her confirmation that I think express the confirmation feeling very well. Here I have used the new collection from Heartdesign as basic. Their paper goes all the way thru the card, on all pages. Here again i have layers og paper and ribbons, butterflies ++

Inside the "second card" is the rest of the poem + some buttons and pink plastic dots from søstrene Grene.

On the last pages I have a tag + a heart button and a little paper rose, on the other side I made a envelope to put the money she will resive as the present. This one I have decorated with several ribbons, flowers, rubons ++

On Frits's card I have used paper from Maja Design, the collection "du och jag". Here 2 I have layers and layers of papers, some metall gitter, buttons, a football picture (since all he thinks of is football), some ribbons, letters and a poem.

I have always thought is it more difficult to make cards for boys than girls (wonder why, when u see what colours I normaly use... LOL).

So in here I have one the first page, made an envelope for the money present, some text, different flowers, ribbons and several layers paper. I tried to use the same papers on the other side, but glued them on in a differet direction. Here I have my little handwritten on page 3 together with some flowers.

Always when I go to "treff" I meet Nina and she always challenge me to decorate all the 4 sides of a card. Here with Frits's card I tried to make the backside nice to. I have used the leftovers from the panels I made + some buttons, same as the front page + my visitcard, that I place on all cards I make (so people know where to find me incase they want to order a card in the future..)

I hope u enjoy my cards, and hopefully they can inspire u to make some 3D effected cards. In Norway monday is our Nationalday. We are to celebrate it in Tromsø, and the weather people say it is going to be very nice weather up there, so hopefully next week I can show u some pictures from the north of Norway...

Have a nice celebration everyone!!!
