Mermaid invite

Happy Friday everyone!! This is a quick post to show the invite I did for my daughter's birthday.  She is turning 5 soon and each year we agonize (or she does) about what the theme will be of the party.  This year she decided she wanted the theme to be squinkies.  What are squinkies you ask? Well they are all the rage among the little girls.  Little plastic characters.  To see a photo, click here.  Since not too many adults know what they are and since we are having our big blow up pool and slide out for the party I thought I would make a "water" themed invite using the little mermaid from Life's a Beach. I fell in love with this little mermaid when I made my 4 little mermaids layout and my daughter was happy to let me go with that for the invites (whew!).

The You're Invited is from the Stampin Daisies line of stamps called Just the Basics. Did you know she is now taking pre-orders for some very cute new stamps coming out??? Check it out here at http://www.stampindaisies.com/2011/06/pre-order-your-stamps-today.html

 I stamped the faces with the Peach Keen Princess Faces which I love!  I then colored in her lips red and chalked her cheeks pink to give her a little color.

 The card flips open to reveal the information on the party inside.

I hope you liked my card!  Don't forget to check out Stampin Daisies new line of stamps.  They are just adorable!
