.... Morning - I was busy making Kathryn's birthday invitations yesterday - she's having her party on Saturday 14th, so I've left it a bit late!! However, it shouldn't be a problem as she and her friends have been discussing it for a while! I used the theme from this week's CAS- Colours & Sketches Challenge - CASC&S41 - rainbow colours. Here are the cards I made:
Stamps: Lil Inkers - Notebook Doodles; My Favourite Things - Just the Ticket, Playlist, For the Record
Inks: Memento - Tuxedo Black; Stampin' Up! - Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Pacific Point, Garden Green, Pool Party
Dies: Lil Inkers - Notebook
Accessories: White Lustre Card; Various Copic and Sakura Stardust pens; SU Markers - Basic Grey, Real Red, Basic Black
This is the first time I've inked up the doodle stamps. I used Copics and Sakura Stardust pens to colour in the doodles, it was such fun! Then I cut out eight notebook pages and stamped on the lines. For the words on the pages I used a mixture of stamps from My Favourite Things and some of the doodle images. The reverse of the invitation gives details of the party:
I've blanked out the address and telephone number. Each card is slightly different; I used different colours to stamp "legit" and "OMGEE!" on each card. I put each invitation card into a glassine envelope and added a name label.
Below are the other three invitation cards - as you can see - there are a few subtle differences between them.
That's all for now. I've got a really busy day lined up - sadly all involving housework. My ironing basket is piled high - so I'll be doing it all in front of the TV and watch a movie at the same time. See you soon.
