love playing with paper

I haven't had a chance to make any invitations in a long time so it was fun to work on some for Oakley's finance conference.  I will admit that when Derek first asked if I could do them I was a bit hesitant - it seemed like a lot of work to crank out 50 handmade invites, especially with no set theme.  I have said it before...I like working with themes, it gets my creative juices flowing. I

also feel some stress when I do invites for other people - I want them to be perfect.

When the last invite was done and I tied them all up with a ribbon, ready for delivery I was glad that I had agreed to do them.  I loved having the chance to be creative and it was fun to pull out my sewing machine for something other than costumes.

For those that care the font used is walkway bold.  I got it from Dafont.  I get nearly all my free fonts at that site.

holy envelope, batman

Do you love these stamps or what?!?! I was at the post office the other day and just had to get these. Think of the possibilities, people.

After I bought the stamps I went and picked up some red envelopes because you know super heroes are all about the color. I got on the computer and made an address label that looked like the "pow', "kaboom", etc bubbles and then added the name and address. In my attempts to foil the evil forces that lurk around every corner I have changed my friends address, although it would be cool to live on whatever street. This one is going to my friend to thank her for being a "super friend" but these stamps and envelopes could be used for a ton of stuff...

thanks for sharing your "super powers" with me (for someone that helped you do something or brought you dinner, etc)

Have you gone out with friends lately or been to a party or dinner? How about thanks for a "super" time.

I think a super hero birthday party would be a blast and you could use this idea for the invites.

What else? I'm sure there are a ton of ways to use these way cute stamps. Let me know if you think of anything.

added...for those interested the font used on the address label is International Superhero
