Sleeping bag invite

What's so special about turning 9? My youngest daughter has been waiting for this particular birthday since she was 5. She's had this party planned right down to the last detail before her 8th birthday was even over. Why? In our family you must be 9 years old to have a sleepover. That's just the rule. So on her 9th birthday, as a rite of passage, Lily will have her first sleepover party. A party like this one deserves a special invite so after playing around with the design studio I came up with this cute sleeping bag invite.

The carts used were George (rectangle - basic card shape), Old West (feed bag for pillow), and Everyday Paperdolls (girl and teddybear). The party info was attached to the inside of the card. I'm sure this idea isn't original, but there was no scraplifting this time. This design was all me! :)

Hey, Howdy, Hey

Another birthday, another invite. This time it was a Toy Story party for my son's 5th birthday. The card base was created with Design Studio - by welding two 5 1/2" frames from the Toy Story cart. Woody was cut at 3 1/2". Matching envelopes were done using Wild Card and Design Studio.

Slumber Party Invites

9 is the magic number here in our house - that's the age you have to be before you can do slumber parties...so SURPRISE...we're having a slumber party next week on my DD's 9th birthday. She chose a dog theme so this is what I came up with. My inspiration and most of the poem came from here. I made 12 of them - surely (hopefully) the day after Christmas some of the girls will be out of town.
