Craftie Cafe: Vroom Vroom PARTY!

Today’s blog is all about PARTIES! A couple of weeks ago my little man turned 5! Tears put aside….(where on Earth did those 5 years go!)... I had a party to get ready for! Now…I always create my own invitations – I use word to create my own layout (though there are a few really nice invite stamps available) and I always add a stamping element to them. This time I used Taylored Expressions: Vroom Vroom – because both my boys love anything car/motor/vehicle related and BONUS it has a little ‘5’ on the car! Double BONUS: The second car happens to have a ‘3’ on it and guess who has a third birthday in October! I first decided to stamp the car in red (red cars go fast!) – I was pretty excited, I had to show them to my boys and the first thing he said to me was “you can’t have red wheels they need to be black…” Back to the drawing board – masking paper! So I created a quick little masking tutorial – which I hope will inspire you to get creative with stamp sets ...
