Lego Party Invitations

I've been busy this weekend - i was asked by a friend of mine to make Lego party invitations for her children's birthday party...

The idea was to make an invitation to look like an actual Lego block - so we used Google to get a couple of ideas...

In the end, this is how it turned out:

 I made the invite the same size as a regular greeting card - so that we could still use a standard envelope with it...  I punched some 1 1/4" circles in the coordinating colors and adhered it to the front using foam tape...

For the inside i used a stitched die to diecut all the printed invites, mounted that onto a yellow card base and adhered it to the inside...  All the personal information has been blocked out - for obvious reasons...

For the matching envelopes i printed the same lego block image onto sticker paper and added that to the front of the envelopes...  I stamped the names using a Lawn Fawn alphabet stamp set...

I think these turned out super cute - can't wait for the actual party!!

I'll be back again soon with some more crafty goodies!!

Party Banners

So after months of being "missing in action" again, i've decided to post something on my blog again... I almost didn't know how to sign in - it's been such a long time since i've been on here...

I've been keeping myself very busy with loads of crafty stuff - something new that i've tried is making party banners - and i'm absolutely loving it...  I must say, i love making cards, but what i love even more is making party decorations...

The following pictures show the work in progress - i made a "Mom to be" banner...

I added some bling details, just to make it extra special...

And here are some pics of the finished product - i've added it to my Etsy shop, so if you're interested you can find it there...

I also make custom banners, so anything you're interested in - let me know and i'll create it...

I am loving these new banner dies i bought - my favourite product to use at the moment...

I'll be back with more news soon...
