As promised, I'm back today with my MDS birthday invite and birthday gift for my father-in-law. He will turn 60 on Wednesday, but we are celebrating tonight with a big surprise party! I was honored that my mother-in-law asked me to make the invitations for this party and had so much fun doing so! A couple years ago my FIL dressed up as an old lady for Halloween and someone was lucky enough to get a picture of him. I created a postcard style invite...here's a look at the front of it:
This is the digital version, so you don't see the cute lipstick stamp that I used after I got them back from being printed. And I just realized that I didn't grab a copy of the invite with the lipstick on it to put in the man bouquet either...oh well!
This bouquet was so much fun putting together and so easy to do! Thanks to my BFF-Twin Brain-Sister Friend Erica's husband for getting me all of these little bottles of booze :) Along with the bottles are a few different gift certificates to our downtown pizza shop, a cupcake shop and a candy store...perfect for the man who loves to have his grand kids come meet him for a sweet treat sometimes :)
Thanks to the help of MDS2, I was able to create something fun and it was oh-so-easy. If you haven't tried MDS2 yet, you can try it for free for 30 days. It is so easy to do and there are so many YouTube tutorials available to help along the way. Visit my Online Store today and get started with your 30 day FREE trial...you won't regret it!
The gift card holders were created using both MDS2, stamp sets and punches. When I have a bit more time, I'll come back and edit this with the supply list :)
Now I'm off to a baby shower and then it's time to get ready for the BIG party tonight!
Happy Birthday Allan!!!
And Happy Stamping to all of you!!!
