Alices 3th Birthday

Good Morning all, i hope you've had a good week. 

Today is my Niece Alice's 3rd Birthday,  She is Unicorn and Flamingo mad so i had to make cards with them on.  Purple is also her favourite colour. So we have purple flamingos which she always calls 'Mingo's' 

I first die cut a dark purple spellbinders labels 1 die cut, approx 6x6" in size and folded it in half.  I then die cut the next size down from white card and the next size down from this fabulous purple pattern paper.  I thought it had a bit of a tropical feel.  

I then die cut a smaller scalloped labels 1 and added it to the front with foam tape.  I die cut 3 'Mingo's' from card coloured with violet oxide ink and purple pixie powder.  I added these to the front.

Computer printed sentiments die cut into circles.  I added touches of glitter glue to the background flowers - what little girl doesn't love glitter.

Showing it stood up.  Only the bottom half of the white panel is glued to the purple base.

A close up of the purple Mingo's, i had also cut 2nd wings for them and shaped before adding to the body.

and onto the second card i made - yep Unicorns.

The glitter unicorn is actually a sticker i found in a discount store, i used a purple pen on his mane, horn and tail. 

White die cut stepper card, i then die cut a cloudy sky paper and added to the front.  I turned the circle birthday sentiment into a shaker pouch.  I added orange card behind to act as the sun, i filled it with orange micro beads and silver glitter.  I added this to the cardfront and then added the unicorn.

I die cut  'Alice & 3' with alpha dies from silver glitter card and purple card and offset,   The number 3 i mounted onto a white circle and then silver circle.

Lots of tiny butterflies cut from orange card.
