6th Birthday Party Invitation

Here are the invitations I made for Eli's 6th Birthday. This one was all my design. I made one for every kid in his class. The indentations on the top took a lot more time than I realized (made with the Cropadile). So next time I make a large quantity of cards, I'll leave those off. But they do add such a nice touch!
Stamp sets used: Just Football, Eat Cake, Short Order Numbers, Collage Numbers.
Accessories: SU Vintage Brads
Oh - and I was so excited to find a large circle punch at Michael's. I think it was 2 1/2 inches. I did the first 2 cards with the Coluzzle and *sorry*, but I just don't like that thing. The punch was soooooo much easier.

"Living the Good Life"

In "Living the Good Life" (Body + Soul Magazine, Dec. 2007), it stated "We asked our most trusted experts to share their best tips for living a healthier, saner, and more satisfying life." One of the key points in the article was to GET CREATIVE. "Write down the things you love, whether it's painting, singing, scrapbooking, or interior design. Next, force yourself to find some quiet time where your brain can empty out." EXPRESS YOURSELF. "Find some time every day to let your inner artist emerge, whether you're a born Picasso or not."
