Gender Reveal Party Invitations

I'm throwing a gender reveal party for my friend Marie at the end of the month.  She sent me a picture of printable invitations available on Etsy and I used the theme to create my own version.

I used my Cricut to cut images using sweet treats cartridge.

I printed the "What's in the Oven?" onto yellow card stock. 

I printed the inside details using Microsoft Word.  I stamped some yellow using Stampin UP Swirly Bird stamp set for additional color. 

They stand up easily.  

I used circles embossing folder to give extra dimension to the cup cake wrapper. 

I hope she enjoys the party.  Boy or Girl what will it be…  you'll have to check back later to see!

Baby Shower Invitations Paper Dresses

These are the baby shower invitations I did for my sister in law Allison.  I created the invitations on My digital studio and glued the card onto the front of a clear envelope.  

I blurred out the address and RSVP information to protect their privacy. 

Inside I put a paper dress (cut from Cricut paper dolls) with instructions for the guests to "write advise to the parents to be and bring back to the shower".  At the shower there was a clothes line with clothespins for everyone to hang up their dresses.  They came out really cute.

Paper Fortune Cookie Invitations

My new marketer Tara is hosting a "Chinese Buffet"  for one of her major accounts on June 22nd and wanted to create a Buzz around the event.  We started last week by giving them a Save the Date Card attached to a pair of chopsticks.  I created the invitation using Microsoft Word and punched pictures of Kung Fu Panda to go along with the theme.  I used pop dots to give extra dimension.

This week I made Paper Fortune Cookie Invitations thanks to a crafting friends suggestion.  I found a great tutorial online Paper Fortune Cookie Tutorial.  The only changes I made were using hot glue instead of glue dots, using a heavier weight paper, and distressing with dark brown.  I used Cricut Platinum School House to cut the circles at 3.8".  

I put the fortune cookies into plastic bags with our business cards attached.   The message reads "You will have a great lunch on Wednesday June 22nd.  See you there!  I hope they like them.

BBQ Apron Invitation

I made this party invitation for a work BBQ. I freehanded the apron pattern and cut the watermelon, flower tag, and sun from Cricut Walk in my garden and Doodle Charms. I stamped the It's a party and Your Invited in Black and used my white Gel pen to accent the watermelon. The checkered paper was from Hobby Lobby and the rest was scrap paper. I printed the information on white card stock in coordinating colors and put some glitter glue inside the sun for a little sparkle.
