A friend just had b/g twins and I would like to make a card. Any color combo suggestions? I have almost all the colors in cs, but not all inks, although I do have the pastels. I was thinking I could use Certainly Celery with something and something???
Any ideas?

I would suggest if you wanted to use Certainly Celery, you could use it with Barely Banana, Almost Amythist, or Apricot Appeal ...
Any of those are fairly unisex ... I am a sucker for yellow and green together ... I have been dreaming about how I will one day decorate a nursey that can be for either a boy or a girl ...
i did a "baby" scrapbook page at a camp and it had to be generic so i picked gable green with ballet blue and pretty in pink accents. I LOVED the green/pink combo btw

Hope that helps a little ...
Thanks! I have all of those in inkpads and cs! Woohoo!!! I will have to play around tonight.

Oooh, I could do that one too. I have all those papers, the green and pink inks and my neighbor has Ballet Blue that I can borrow. Thank you!

Since they're fraternal twins, I think complimentary colors (opposite sides of the color wheel) would be cute. Can't wait to see what you come up with!

I have boy/girl twins who are 3 1/2 now. A lot of the scrap pages I did of them together as babies were done in Bold Brights or primary colors. I like primary colors for babies anyway. Orange, yellows and greens - something bright and springy! You can also do themes that incorporate both boys and girls - animal prints and zoo themes, using EE colors; sailor themes - with red, white and navy; Raggety Ann & Andy themes; musical themes - in any color.
A "twins" card sounds like a fun thing to do for the parents, but I'd consider making separate cards for each child. Then there's one for each baby book.

Color combo suggestions for boy/girl twins?
