Holiday Cocktail Party Invite



This is the invite I made--18 of them--for our annual holiday cocktail party that we hold the first Saturday in December.  I really like all of the components of this card and I used some of my favorites--Happy Hour stamp set, the Winter Frost DSP, Northern Frost Embossing Folder and now the Snowflake Soiree stamp and matching die bundle.  I just ordered it last week at hostess club--but I used it at Camp Stamp-in-Oga earlier this month to make these cards.

This is the inside of the card, with the actual invite that I printed.  I made the layered snowflake at Camp and had to realign the top of the invite to make it fit.  I did blur out parts of the invite with the address and phone number for the picture for my blog post; that's why two lines might look a bit odd. 



As you can see, we are having an "Ugly Christmas Sweater" Contest this year.  It should be a hoot and I hope to show some pictures of the entrants after the party. I might need to blur out some of their faces if I post pictures on my blog........................
