For the past several years I have made birthday cards for a friends twin granddaughters--one in pink and the other in purple. I have often found inspiration for these from the Featured Stamper Challenge. This year my muse is again a Featured Stamper, Lynn aka Inky Pinky, and this is her card that inspired: Coming Up Daisies by InkyPinkys at Splitcoaststampers
I love her fancy die cut bg with the scallops and fun flower. I didn't have her beauty but I thought this one worked well and I could cut the scallop edging onto it. Because I wanted colored flowers instead of white, I reversed her look with the base being the color and the die cut white. I exchanged her single large daisy for a cluster of roses and switched out gold thread for her twine. I include the girls' ages on these cards, so I added a tag here with die cut numbers.
Congratulations Lynn on being this week's Featured Stamper. Your Gallery is fabulous and I hope you are enjoying all the cards you are inspiring. And, I hope everyone is having twice as much fun today as usual. TFL

Both Beautiful! Love the die-cut BG, the beautifully Copic-colored flowers, and the tie with the age are all amazing touches to make this perfect...

Great die you used too, Debbie. The flowers are beautiful. The girls will love these as they are really, really pretty cards. The 18 tucked in is a fab idea. Hugz

That is a sweet L.F. die. (Color me enabled, lol).....These are both gorgeous and I love the addition of the little tags with their ages on them. Faved mf!
Debbie, Debbie, Debbie - I *LOVE* your card! Such exquisite coloring on your flowers, and what a pretty background. The little "18" tag is the perfect way to celebrate those milestone birthdays.
