Catherine is really big into Hello Kitty and wanted a Hello Kitty birthday party. I didn't really want to buy Hello Kitty invites or scrapbooking paper for invites. I wasn't sure where I would even find enough without having to order it online, so I started searching for a stamp. Let me tell you it was hard to find. I finally found one that was 1 inch by 1 inch. Due to the size I decided to make my own patterned paper. I used the Hello Kitty stamp and then used some little hearts, star and spiral stamps to fill in around that. I used black, gypsy, cotton candy and baby pink ink from Close to My Heart.
I used the Close to My Heart exclusive Cricut cartridge to cut out the number six in baby pink and the scalloped circle in gypsy. I used some of the glitz glitter gel in silver to add some shine without adding too much bulk so they would be easier and cheaper to mail!
I am very pleased how they turned out and Catherine loved them as well. It is always important to remember if you can't find paper to go with your project you can easily make you own with a few stamps and ink.
These are soooo cute! Glad to see you STAMPED them! And they are one of a kind!
