Invitation Inspiration




Hello and welcome to our final group post for the November  Papertrey Ink  Release! The new products you are seeing here will be available in the store at Papertrey Ink on November 15th at 10:00 EST!

Today the team is using some fun new birthday products to create a party invitation ensemble! The products I'm showcasing today are the Invitation Basics stamp set and dies, Big Basics: Save The Date Die, and  Big Basics: Surprise die. And I am creating an invitation and tag for a young girl's birthday party.



Here is the card that I created. I stamped the balloons with the MISTI so I could blend my colors a bit. I stamped the packages, cut them out with the matching dies and stacked them up, and put a bow at the top. I added a couple of the flowers from Stylized Autumn, and a strip of yellow striped paper along the bottom.



I cut out the Big Basics: Save The Date die three times, glued those together and adhered it across the balloons at the top.



I also created a cute matching envelope by stamping the candles from the Invitation Basics stamp set in different colors along the bottom.

STAMPS: Invitation Basics, Stylized Autumn
DIES: Invitation Basics, Stylized Autumn
INK: Prairie Grass, Hibiscus Burst, Raspberry Fizz, Summer Sunrise
PAPER: Stamper’s Select White, Bright Buttercup + White patterned paper
OTHER: Clear sequins

***



I used the Tag Sale: Quilted die for my tag, and the stitched square background is from the Noted: Scalloped Square dies. I blended some of the new Prairie Grass dye ink along the bottom of the stitched square before adhering the greenery and cake. 




I cut the Big Basics: Surprise die out of Hibiscus Burst card stock  three times, layered those together, and glued them along the top of the stitched square. I added a few clear sequins and a ribbon at the top tied with silver thread.

STAMPS: Invitation Basics, Stylizled Autumn 
DIES: Invitation Basics, Stylized Autumn, Big Basics: Surprise, Tag Sale: Quilted, Noted: Scalloped Square
INK: Prairie Grass, Summer Sunrise, Hibiscus Burst
PAPER: Stamper’s Select White, Hibiscus Burst
OTHER: Clear Sequins, ribbon, silver thread

  8. This ensemble is perfect for that girly girl who is all about pink, bows and anything else that lets the world know she is female. How wonderful, especially the blend on your balloons. I've yet to master that even with the MISTI.
