Finally....

Hello stampers! Finally...I am making good on my promise to share Elle's birthday invitations! Sorry it took me so long.....we had everything packed and ready to go to my friends wedding last weekend...and then I woke up at 1 am on the morning we were to drive 6 hours with the flu!!!! Yup, I was up every hour getting sick and had to miss the wedding we had been looking forward to for a year!!!!! I am still soooooo bummed about it!!!!! But, I am feeling much better now, have used Lysol on the entire house and am now stamping up a storm!!!

Elle has decided that she wants to have her party at the local water park...so we are praying for NO RAIN!!!!!!! It should be a lot of fun because this is the first year she has a say in who she wants to invite....since she is in preschool now and actually has her "own" friends! ;o)








After trying really hard to come up with a "splish splash" themed invitation....I decided I was not a fan of any of my ideas and so I went with a much more simplistic "theme" and used my beloved "Simple Birthday Thanks" cupcake set! (Have I mentioned how much I LOVE this stamp!?!?!) I just wasn't "feeling" any of my water ideas! When you open the invitation up, there is a pocket where the guests will find more info about the party and the location. I did a similar style invitation for a friends wedding last year and I love the idea! Hope you enjoy it! I think it is a fun invitation...and Elle loves it! She thinks I'm "AMAZING" (her words...not mine!) so I guess that is what matters! Although I would love to hear your ideas and comments!!!

ALSO, I have only 3 more spaces for my new catalog stamp camp on Sunday, July 26th!!!! Contact me to book your space or to find out more information!!! jaimiegvozdas@earthlink.net



I hope you have a FABULOUS Wednesday!!!! Thanks for looking!!
