Sweet 16


Our second daughter just celebrated her big milestone 16th birthday.  She's not a big cardmaker, but enjoys and appreciates the thoughtfulness of a homemade card.  She's not into the frilly "sweet 16" girly party themes so I tried to keep it more her style.  The papers are from a Spring 6x6 paper pack I picked up in AC Moore a few months back.


Here's her party invitation (my idea/card choice)
Of course, you realize after the invitations are all mailed that your picture didn't come out so great.  This is the Tim Holtz big cupcake/die set that I've been eyeing since I first saw it in Hobby Lobby.   Just before it was time to make her invitations for her party, I found this $25 set on the clearance rack for $8.99.  It was so fun to work with.  The you're invited and the sweet are from MFT stamps and the 16 is from one of their alpha/numeric dienamics.
