SUNDAY:
Don't you just love holiday weekends where you get up and it's Sunday but it's really a Saturday because we're off tomorrow too?
Oh yeah - LOVE THAT!!
Miss Marti over at Pez-A-Doodle is tryin' to be like Kohl's or Dillard's or Macy's or somethin' and havin' herself a lil' Memorial Day sale. Tomorrow only almost everything in the store will be 25% off! Now her stuff is already a smokin' deal so taking 25% off a smokin' deal makes the prices dang hot - wooooooooooo!
And and and - there's a new challenge over at the Studio G group on PCP - this time it's a sketch challenge. You don't have to use Studio G stamps but who ain't got just one of those lil $1 babies hangin' around? Here's my take on the sketch which features Studio G Series 32 goodness and Glittered Skittles - both of which can be found at Pez-A-Doodle.

SATURDAY:
Gettin' to the blog-o a little late today - was up late last night coupon shopping and then working on things for Digiments and then out bright and early this morning because I found 12 more double coupons!!! and then I came home and parked-it at my craft table working on things for my design teams and on something pretty special to me.
I made the invitations for my daughter's 5th birthday party!
I am so stinkin' excited about these. I hate that the raspberry colors don't reproduce well for me, but, these are so adorable. I will say up front - these are not cheaper than buying a pack of invites at the party store.
Here's a lil' cost breakdown for you:
(4) sheets of Basis Magenta cardstock from Paper Temptress = $1.32
(2) sheets of Laser White Glossy Lustre cardstock from Paper Temptress = $1.68
2/3 of a sheet of Silver Ore cardstock from Paper Temptress = $.50
1/3 of a pack of stickers from Zurchers (party store) = $.49
Spool of Raspberry Fizz Swiss Dot Satin ribbon from Papertrey Ink = $3.00
1/3 of a spool of Sheer White Polka Dot ribbon from Papertrey Ink = $1.00
----------
Having your little girl beam with pride telling people that her mommy made her birthday party invitations: priceless.
Hope you are having a great Holiday weekend!
Thanks for stopping by today.

Great job!! You are brave!! I didn't have time to make the invites for my dd party 2 weeks ago, I had to get them from Wal-Mart.
Oh yes.....more than priceless when they tell everyone with such pride. I had the same when my grown 21 year old was heard boasting for her 21st invites! Something to cherish!
These are awesome!!!
I always love making party invites for my dd. Now I do those things for my youngest niece but after her there won't be any more little ones to create for. :( These are so adorable. I just love Hannah.
Oh how cute, Love the invites, the olors and the ribbon are perfect!
Absolutely ADORABLE! A 5 year old daughter is also priceless, you know how I LOVE children! I would LOVE to meet her sometime.

lovely card.
I know I'm over the moon if my daughter even likes a card I've made for her . So you must be so very very pleased. Watch out coz boy do they grow up quick these days.
My 8yo is Hannah Montana crazy! She skipped having a party this year so she could get more stuff, but I did take her to see the Hannah Montana movie as part of her birthday package. I didn't even think of making her a Hannah card--shame on me! Have a great weekend!
I love your cards here! Your Hannah Montana card is GREAT! What a fun project for a little girl.
Did you make it to the Verve release party? I was so sad to miss it, but I had a look at the new stamps.
They may be more expensive, but they're worth every penny. I tried to imagine what they'd look like when you told me you were making the invites, but these are way cuter than I could've imagined. K is a luck girl!
OH my gosh these are stinkin adorable!!!! I can see everyone of the little girls keeping this card! your a super MOM!
Oh, I'm not going to let my daughter sneak a peak at those invitations....don't want her to get any ideas for putting a request in ;) I hope you are enjoying your lllooonnngggg weekend!
OH, Michelle! Those are awesome!!! I just love that your daughter enjoys your hobby so much! Too sweet : ) The first card is so pretty too! I love the layout and the tag!
