Graduation Party Invitations
I promised to catch up and here's my first effort. I went back to edit photos of the graduation invitation that I made. These were relatively simple when I used my MISTI stamping tool and the computer.
The sentiment is stamp from Hobby Lobby. I had to remove it from the wood block to use in on my MISTI tool, but once placed I was able to stamp out 35 of these invitations to send to family and friends. The card fold is easy. I followed the tutorial provided here. The tassel was made from some glittery crochet thread I picked up at Hobby Lobby.
I am so pleased with how these turned out. I received lots of compliments. Luckily, one of the guests used the invitation as a wrapping decoration, so I received one back. I'm thinking of including this in Tim's scrapbook of the event. I planned some fun activities for the party. I'll post photos of that as well. Thanks for stopping by.
I'm going to enter this into a couple of challenges. Come join the fun!

These are great grad party invites, Andie, and I love the sentiment. I'm so glad someone "returned" one so you have one to keep. Thanks for your comment on my Raisin Boat challenge card - it made my day!
