We are having a puppet themed birthday party this year.In my usual micro-detailed fashion, I wanted to make the party invites super cute.
I ordered them from Tiny Prints - these guys really have an awesome selection for just about every occasion. It's the 2nd time I've used them, and I'm still really impressed.
Instead of just writing all the addresses on there, I wrote them with some funky hand writing and had my almost-4-yr-old color in all the 'holes' of the letters with pretty colored pencils.
Cute, right? Fun way to involve your kids in addressing the invites when they are too young to actually write all the addresses.
In other news, last night I went to a lecture at my quilt guilt (SCVQA). Lecture by Melinda Bula was entertaining, and her quilts were very beautiful.
I think she uses a fusable technique to make these giant floral quilts. Very Georgia O'Keefe looking. Bright colors. I had seen the quilts all before when I attend the quilting in the garden quilt show in Livermore last year.
I love the invitations and I'd love to hear all about the party when it's over too. I enjoyed the link, the quilts are amazing.
ReplyDeleteLove the personal touch on the invites.
ReplyDeleteTypo or...?

I've heard they can be tough.
What a great idea to have your four year old help.
