Monster Thank You Card

This is the thank you card that I sent out to everyone for my son's 3rd Birthday. We had a Monster theme for his party so I figured that I would stick with the theme in the thank you card. This is my favorite in the cards that I've made this past month! Hope you enjoy!

This is an A2 size premade card and I inked the edges with brown ink. The cardstock is New Leaf and Dark Chocolate from Papertrey Ink. The stamp set is the CUTEST EVER!! It is called "Monster Mash" and I got it from cleardollarstamps.com. I stamped a background with a monster on the Dark Chocolate in brown ink and then stamped the monster on the white circle with black Stazon and colored him in with Copic markers. The "monster huge thanks" is from the same stamp set and stamped in brown ink. The circles are randomly cut using a 1 3/8 inch circle punch.


This is a close-up of the monster that I colored with Copic Markers.

Monster Birthday Cupcakes

Here are the cupcakes that I made tonight for my son's birthday! I can't believe that 3 years ago tomorrow I was in the hospital having him! And, it was the worst weather day of the entire year. There was a blizzard and everyone was snowed in :) Well, here is my first try at the cupcakes. These are for the kids at his daycare and then I will have to make another batch for his family birthday party. I figured even if these didn't turn out very well the kids wouldn't care...they still taste great!! My son asked for "extra chocolate" so these are double fudge cupcakes. I think they turned out cute and he really loves them! Enjoy the pics!

Monster Birthday Invitations

Okay, so here are the Monster Birthday Invitations I made today for my son's 3rd Birthday Party. They are VERY simple, but I had to make a bunch of them, so I wanted them to get put together as quickly as possible. On the back I wrote "Our Little Monster is turning 3" and the information for the party. I think they turned out really cute.

I used the Plantin Schoolbook Cricut Cartridge for the "monster head" and the envelope. The "blast" is cut on Roly Poly at 4 1/2 and the envelope is cut on Roly Poly at 4 3/4.

Hope you enjoy!
