Birthday cards for sisters

These cards are for friends of mine who are sisters and both have birthdays in February

Papers were a free download (will try and find out where from)

Image was coloured with wc pencils and i dotted a few bits of sakura glaze pen on her head scarf and plants to help it co-ordinate with the backing paper better!

flowers,button and leaf were from my stash( i just stamped my sentiment straight onto it),

the strip of paper running through the card is Basic Grey.......

I used cream card stock and printed some brown gingham on one side and cuttlebugged the other flowers are prima and again coloured the image with wc pencils.

ribbon was from stash......

thanks for looking
