Birthdays


Happy New Year to you all!

My cards for today are for a friends children who both have birthdays in January.
Hayden is first and he will be 12 and I thought he was at the age where some images were a bit too cute so I made a card used his name with Zentangle. It's my first attempt and I found it very relaxing.

Demi is next and she will be 21 on the 21st (I think) and being a girl that was fairly easy...lol






As always thanks for your visit!

Gorgeous cards. The zentangle looks amazing, I have tried this technique before and failed miserably. I love the other card as well and decorating it inside and out is a really good idea.

The girlie card is an absolute stunner. I also really like your Zentangle card. I really need to experiment more with this technique.

Hi Ali! Thanks for the comment on my blog. The boxes are designed for the small cardboard reels of ribbons like you can get them from Dovecraft/Trimcraft. I have also seen them from other manufacturers.
