Invitations by Design

So my daughter declared that she wants a Shopkin themed birthday party. She like many girls in her class seem to be quite obsessed with these little figurines of food, household utencils, clothing accessories, etc. with faces. Usually I make her invitations and in the past it’s been themes like Cinderella, Frozen, Tinkerbell, there was even a Hallowe’en themed birthday party (since her birthday is just before Hallowe’en), so when digging through my Stampin’ Up! stamp sets it’s been pretty easy to find something that would work really well. Unfortunately for me this time around Stampin’ Up! doesn’t make Shopkin stamp sets (although maybe they should consider it considering they seem to be all the rage).

We went through all my paper, etc. and she decided that she wanted to use Flirty Flamigo (one of the 2016-2018 In Colours) and Delightful Dijion (one of the 2015-2017). A combination that I would not have thought of myself at all! Somehow though when we put the two together it worked quite well (demonstrator in the making). So now to my dilemma of finding an image/images to stamp…. Fortunately I have a retired Stampin’ Up! stamp set called “Dress Up”, which has come in handy a few times and managed to do so again when I came up with the idea of printing Shopkin faces that would then be cut out and pasted to the stamped images.

Put it all together and voila!

(For some reason even though I took the pictures vertically they rotated to horizontal, sorry about that)
