Party Invitations

Hi everyone in blogging land sorry for not posting

in a while....what with work....kids and house work

had no time to make any card.....anyway onto the

post.....I was asked to make some party invitations

for a childrens party....

the brief my friend gave me was to use blue and red....and

to have some ballons on them....had to make them generic

because they where for a childrens party  for twins a girl

and a boy...this is the design I came up with...

the scallop was cut using my nesties....the oblog was also

using my nesties

the ballons where made on my cricut... and

the party invitation was printed on my

computer and cut out...red ribbon was tied around

the invitation...and on the back

of the invitation  i added the time and

the place off the party...

I had to make 40 in total....this is a picture of all of

them together...this is the first time I've mass produced...

quite pleased with myself...my friend thought they were amazing...

Happy Birthday

Over at Tickled Pink blog their challenge this week is to use the sketch

and to make a matching bookmark

you also have to use any stamps that

they sell well surprise they sell magnolia....

I'm into making larger cards at the moment...this is

a piece of card folded in half....can never

remember the sizes lol.....

the image was coloured in with my trusty

promarker's and was cut out with nesties...

the paper from the background is from my stash...

the ribbon is from hobbycraft...they sell loads

of ribbon on reels and it starts at 99p a bargin..

the punched edge at the bottom is a martha

stewert punch...

the punched heart is also a martha stewert and

to give some dimention on the middle

panel I used some foam dots to pop

her off...

the bookmark was made in the same style...here they are together..

think I'll send them together as part of the card...

love the idea...
