i have a growing pile of invitations to post, so i thought i'd share a couple today since i've been fast and furiously working on others. it's always crazy for me the week before a holiday, especially with most schools here having spring break next week and people heading out of town. the top one is a printed monogram design with a vellum overlay--perfect for a bridal shower. and the second with a somewhat similar look is text printed over a stamped design--actually the printing came first, stamping second. i also stamped the gown randomly on the back layer to give the paper a lace pattern, repeating the design of the gown. i love the lace detail on that dress.
and since i posted colleen's egyptian barbies last week, i thought i'd post a picture of how she looked dressed in the same fashions for ancient egyptian culture day yesterday. as i mentioned in that post, she's my little fashionista and was very specific about what she wanted to wear--right down to the sandals, which we created from an egyptian activity book i have from when i taught first grade at the same school. i also included mignon from two years ago when she was an egyptian--they got a kick out of comparing their pics and i love seeing them side by side!
have a great day!
