Sassy Cheryl's Show Me #22


Well, it's Thursday again and that means another "Show Me" over on Sassy Cheryl's Blog. My sister called me a few weeks ago and asked a "favor" of me. My niece will be turning 1 year old on May 29 and my sister was looking for party invitations. Of course, all she could find was the cheesy kind of invite at Wal-mart with Dora the Explorer, etc. So, she calls her big sis and asks "Can you make a few party invitations?" Well, I can't refuse my little sister AND my baby niece can I? So, this week I'm making 16 birthday party invitations. As you can see, I'm keeping it pretty simple and did most of the work on the computer. The main image is from Heather Ellis' Pure Innocence digital image line.

The dresses will be paper pieced with green, orange, pink or yellow gingham card stock. A dew drop has been adhered to the cupcake cherry for additional dimension. The image is colored with Copic Markers and mounted on a coordinating color of card stock. It's been a fun project. I hope my sister likes them! Of course, she asked me to send her the "bill" when I'm finished! Ha!

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look! Upload your current project HERE and you might have a chance at winning a free Sassy Chery digital image.

Love your invitations.....never thought of paper piecing a digital image
Don't you just love it when someone likes your creations so much they ask you to make something so special for them. I agree yours are 100000000 times better than the generic ones. Besides theres all that love inside too!

These are the cutest birthday invitations. Looks like you have an assembly line going. Yeah, I've heard that bill thing suggested a time or two myself. I just smile and tell them it's a gift of love(as long as they're family members).
