Happy Sweet 16

IMG_4461

Tasha will turn 16 in 1 month.  She’s at her Grandparents today so Briana and I decided to take this opportunity to make her invitations!  We wanted to copy the design from the napkins and plates that I bought at Party City which are sort of retro and have princess crowns on them.  Here’s what we came up with (no, everyone doesn’t get this much bling on their card—this will be Tash’s own personal invitation.

 

 

 

 

 

Here’s how many we made!

Here’s what we used:

Extreme Elements stamp set

Artistic Etchings and

Introducing

Colors: Chocolate Chip and Regal Rose, Very Vanilla

Ink: for the Vanilla  and the Regal Rose, we used the craft spots

Accessories: We stamped the crown with Regal Rose craft ink, then poured irridescent ice embossing powder—tapped off really well, then heated with heat tool.

I only added one rhinestone to each card for a little more Bling effect!
