My "baby" girl turned 3 yesterday and we'll be having her party soon.... (as in Saturday)....I have been behind the times in getting stuff done on a timely basis and of course prepping for this party was no different..... so I panicked about invitations (though I had verbally invited our friends already) ......
So I requested some help from my fellow Stampin sisters recently to get ideas for some Dora inspired birthday invitations. Someone sent me a link to a similar card on the internet (though the creator says that she printed all the parts off the computer then adhered to card) but I completely hand created this one!
I used punches and the now retired Coluzzle Cutting system.
I cut the largest circle for the flap of the backpack, I used retired Orchid Opulence colored grosgrain for the backpack straps, the Heart Punch (partial) for the mouth, Oval and 3/4" Circle for the eyes, and the smaller photo corner from the Photo Corner punch cut in half for the eyebrows.
I hope you like it as much as I do...b/c I'm positively GIDDY about the turnout! And I made 18 of them in just about 1 hour and 45 minutes TOTAL (start to finish including addressing envelopes and putting them in the mailbox and everything!!!)
So here you go! (ps Personal info smudged on purpose for safety)
