CTMH Birthday Party Invitation with Animal Cookies and Its Your Day (August 09 SOTM)

I had a chance the other night to play around with the upcoming August Stamp of the Month called Its Your Day. If you are looking for a neat set to make birthday invitations or birthday cards with then you'll want to pick this set up starting August 1 when you can get it at a big discount or even for free - gotta love free! I'll be participating in the August SOTM blog hop on August 1 so be sure to come back and see links to 50+ other CTMH consultants work with this stamp set!

This is another card based on a pattern from our new Wishes Cardmaking book - this one is called Matchbook because of the fold. The party circle is actually keeping the card closed and to open it you simply side the cardstock out from under the tab. Very fun pattern to play with! This card is pretty darn simple as it was getting late at night when I made it. While I LOVE having my kids home for summer vacation (they are a ton of fun) I do miss the time during the school day when I used to get my creative stuff done!

Paper: Animal Cookies
Stamps: Its Your Day (upcoming August Stamp of the Month)
Ink: Desert Sand, Tulip, Dutch Blue, Clover Green, Sunflower Yellow
Other: Liquid Glass (it added texture to the cake pieces)

Paige, This is so cute. I am stressing over the blog hop and what to do with this stamp set. I'll have to start playing with it soon.

Leslie - Don't stress over it! I'm sure whatever you come up with will be great! I've been trying to come up with unique ways to use our sets but this time I think I'm just going to go brights with this one. This set calls out to Animal Cookies for me! Looking forward to another awesome hop - this time with 50+ consultants! What a treasure trove of ideas this will be!
