Birthdays...

I love planning a birthday party for my girls... My youngest(Meg), who will be turning 9, has decided to have an art birthday party...I did give her a choice!!! But she hasn't had one yet and is quite excited. Time got away from me and I realized the other day that her birthday was in 2 weeks and I hadn't gotten her invites together...At first I was going to download a printable invite from Etsy and Meg and I looked for just the right one, but just before I hit the "add to cart" button... I realized that that was the easy way out. So I brainstormed a few minutes and this is what I came up with.

 I cut these palette shapes out of one of my work aprons! The paint was already on it, wahoo!!

 Well I did have to add some "extra" paint:)

The invite was printed from my computer using a fun font. I then punched holes in both and added some bakers twine(one of my favorite things)& put them in a clear cellophane sleeve with a resealable flap.

What do you think? Didn't cost a dime...
