Yesterday my step-dad and I finally got to meet and get decorations for my mother's surprise party. Well I didn't like the invitations. I thought they were too expensive and cheesy. So I went to the craft store afterward..... That is always dangerous!
The theme is Hollywood and we got tons of cute decorations. For the invitations I'm cutting squares of black card stock, with the invitation printed on a pretty pearl like white square, with the edges cut with one of those fancy scissors that makes a pattern...called postage stamp I think. Then I'm using small gold and silver stars on the edge of each white square, which is glued to the black. There is also a Hollywood clip art picture behind the text. They look really cute! But gosh my hands hurt! Those fancy scissors are not easy to use!
Oh and the ink takes forever to dry on the white fancy paper.....I mean like forever! How in the world do I get myself in these situations? Repeatedly!
