It's a Party and You're Invited!!!

I recently put my invitation making skills to work and wanted to share this one with you.

Expressions of Talent was having their annual banquet and wanted a creative invitation to spread the news to their staff. The company color is lavender so I thought it would be a great creative touch to incorporate this in to the invite. The banquet was also a winter/holiday theme so that is why I chose to use a snowflake on the front. I wanted to keep the invite simple but unique since these invites are all handmade and I knew I would be making quite a few. I did however, type up the information on the inside of the card on my computer using my invitation software. After meeting with Trina (the owner) and using my imagination I put all of my creative design ideas to work to come up with the invitation below.

Hope you like it…

In addition to these wonderful invitations I made I also made coordinating menus and gift tags....






Awesome Job

Hello All,

Ever wonder what to do with the certificate cutout on the Plantin Schoolbook Cartridge for the Cricut? I have such an amazing project to share with you that I recently created.  Expressions of Talent is my top customer and puts my creative ability to work constantly. The owner, Trina, was recently holding a gymnastics meet and asked me to create a certificate to hand out to the kids. I have posted pictures below of the finished certificate as well as the leaves I created and glued onto the certificates. The mock meet had a fall theme so I incorporated that into the certificate by using fall leaves. The leaves were also created using the cricut. I had so much fun with this project and really love the outcome. I actually had a chance to attend the gymnastics meet so I could see how much the kids and their parents loved the certificates.
