Birthday invitations....

Morning everybody,

Very nice day today. Getting warm here. Lovely to see sunshine everyday. I am preparing for my daughter Aditi's nineth birthday party. Here are the invitations we had made together.

I got this idea from here. Lacey Stephan's blog is awesome. Thanks for the inspiration Lacey.

Aditi wanted purple and green together and nothing "kidish" on her card. So no cupcakes, ponies...... Her choice was this Embellishment stamp set from PTI.So we together came up with the design. Sparkly things are a must for 9 year olds. So added rhinestones to the flourish. The actual invitation was made on the computer using basic shapes on word customed to the size of the purse. Purse is made using sizzix XL die.So the invitation was not too hard to make at all.

All the invitations are distributed now. 20 plus girls invited for the party. There will be a lot of giggles, screams, shrills.... Can't wait for saturday!
Got to make takeaway bags. All cut and kept. Will assemble them today and show you by tomorrow.
Now off shopping for the party. Have a great day!
See ya!

Another invitation set.....

Here I am with another invitation set. This set is an order by a client for her mother's 60th birthday.

Contains the invitation, favour box and place card.

The invite is a trifold card with the invite inside. This client too wanted the actual invitation loose with magnet at the back.The favour box will have chocolates/cookies in a cello bag tied with gray taffeta ribbon.

I have made 40 invitations already. 60 place cards and favour boxes left to make.

Weekend crafts.....

My DD Aditi's wanted to make a birthday card to her class teacher. Although her teacher's birthday was yesterday (Sunday!) She only knew about it on Friday. So we had lovely mother-daughter time together and made a card. Aditi choose the colors and the stamp sets. She wanted sparkles on the card and a gift too. Here is the card we made together.

There is the metal PTI bookmark with the felt flowers that comes out from the pouch for the teacher. I forgot to take a photo of it separately.She is all proud today taking the card to the teacher. Will wait this evening for her to tell me all about it lol!

Supplies:

Cardstock: PTI's Cream, SU's Taken with Teal, Basic Gray, Kiwi Kiss

Stamp sets: Its Official and Just the Ticket from PTI

Inkpads: Stazon Black Ink and Kiwi Kiss!

I also have made some changes to the invitations from the previous post after receiving feedback from many of you here, emails and in the forum. Thanks you so much. I have not modified too much but a little. It did make a whole lot difference. Here are the modified versions.

Hope my client likes one of the two. Fingers crossed! 

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day!

Wedding invitations!

Here are a couple of invitation samples I have made for an order. The client wants a simple invitation as its a casual wedding ceremony on a beach. And want the actually (lol! I did not edit did I?)  invitation inside to be loose with a magnet behind so the recipent can put it up on the fridge. And colors she wants are purple or pink with silver/pearlised white. With those in mind, I made these two. I need to make 100 of them is she chooses one from these two.

Also the client is going to print the invite from the computer and paste it on the card herself. Thats why its left blank. I like some stamped images on the corners of the invitation but since she is going to do the invite, I am limited in that aspect. I like both but feels like its not complete.You know what I mean?  I want your opinion on what more should I do? Please leave your ideas on the comment section.

Thanks in advance...
