Birthday Party Invite!

A friend of mine asked if I could do a party invitation for her little girl. She wanted it to be pink. Here is what I came up with:



I used an envelope to make this! (I saw a Utube video for this about a year ago, sorry can't remember who.) I cut the top off, used cricut markers to make the party time, decorated it with stamps then pushed it into my paper crimper, this makes the bottom of the envelope a little smaller so the top can slip on. I first used the markers to draw the cupcake from the Stamping Cricut Cartridge, then I cut it out added glitter, glossy accents, and embossing. Added some prima flowers and string around the top.

The inside is patten paper with matching card stock on top. I will be printing the party info and gluing it to the pink part.

I am entering this into : The pink Stamper: So your challenge is to incorporate an envelope into your project. Use an envelope in a layout, make an envelope to go with a card you have made, or make your project with an envelope,
