Luau Party {Tropical Invitation}

My daughter’s 4th birthday is coming up, and we’re having a luau themed party. I used the Fresh Cut Notes to make the tropical flower by layering it with Island Oasis DSP and cutting it out. Then, I added a Chocolate Chip 1/4″ Epoxy Brad to the center.

The card base is Early Espresso, with a strip of Apricot Appeal that was embossed with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder and Melon Mambo Grosgrain Ribbon (polka dots on the back). The grass skirt is made from Kiwi Kiss textured card stock, cut with paper snips.

To finish it off, I stamped the “you’re invited” in Versamark and heat embossed with White Embossing Powder.

Stampin Up Funky Four Rainbow Catalog CASE

There is a great card in the new catalog that I knew I wanted to copy right away. It’s very similar to this in terms of color scheme and the stamp set used–Funky Four.

The base is Crumb Cake, with the leaf stamped in the same color ink along the sides. Next, I stamped the leaf print using the stamp-a-majig on Whisper White card stock in the following four colors: Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Certainly Celery, and Marina Mist.  Underneath each leaf, I attached the corresponding color button from the Bold Brights Designer Buttons Collection using glue dots. Then, I stamped “happy birthday” from Curly Cue in Chocolate chip ink at the top.

I matted the Whisper white on Chocolate chip card stock, that was embossed with with the Swiss Dots embossing folder and the Big Shot.

And that’s it–a colorful, clean and simple card perfect for any occasion–just swap out the sentiment.

Cheers! It’s a Party! {Summer Party Invitations}

I’m working on some summer themed party invitations using the Cheers to You stamp set. I like them all for different reasons but the last one is my favorite. This stamp set looks especially good embossed and colored in with Copics. Crystal Effects gives an added 3D effect that also makes the drinks stand out.
