4 candles


My twins are turning 4 tomorrow!!  I can't believe it.  It seems like just yesterday that we were wondering if we would make it for even one year!  We were pretty convinced that you can die from sleep deprivation.  But we didn't, and here we are.  One of the girls loves pink, so this pretty pink card is just for her.  Check out the flames on the candles.  After I used a sponge dauber with yellow ink to create the "glow" I discovered these little yellow droplets in my stash.  I haven't really figured out what to do with them, but they were perfect to add just a little bit more color to the center of the flames.
