PICTURE IT PERFECT blog hop 28 jan 2012


SO.. I bet your wondering how this name and thought came about..  During the 13 days of Halloween I was participating in - Gill had this awesome card with a picture..  It gave ME a thought..  hmm.. a blog hop showing a PICTURE from either one you took OR from a magazine and create a project from that.  I talked to Gill and since my experience with starting hops (on FB) was zilch - she and I are co-hosting this hop.  Thanks Gill for teaching me about getting a hop together.. :) (I still have lots to learn..lol)  SO I thank you for coming by.

YOU should have come from  GILL's BLOG  If here by chance, thank you.  BUT please start back at Gill's   -don't want you to miss any awesome projects!

 Onto my project for today.. What could I do - so many ideas came to mind.. Here is my first thought..
an invitation...  I have my son, Jayden who will be 8 this year under water and he loves pool parties and again..  we will have yet another pool party. I am making them ahead of time so that his friends from school can come (no excuses this year..)


I used a 4x6 pic from last year summer pool time. I used a underwater camera from Wal-mart.  I used Rub-On's from American Crafts called Jack.   This will be the front of the invitation.
the back of the invitation is..
all pre- cut and created and ready to be put together.


FRONT of invite~  This is my Jayden from last years pool days.  and this years INVITE  lol!!

this is a closer look to the picture invite I added the cut WATER FUN  at 1 in from the cartridge H 2 0 - these are 2 most used cartridges for summer! 

back of the 4x6 picture. I used ctmh ink pad moonstruck BUT for the rest of the invites I will be using blue Stazon as when you STILL touch the back it is still inky.   **  I cut the wave and the beach balls from the cartridge Life is A  Beach. Wave cut at 1.4in and the balls at 1in in the Imagine and using the built in colors.   ** I typed up the format of the invitation on my computer and then inked the edges with ctmh crystal Blue ink and tore the bottom.
I hope you like my Picture Perfect invitation for today!!
