Sweet Treat Cups Birthday Invitation - Stampin' Up!




I just love this idea for a birthday party invitation!  My 6 year old watched this video with Brian demonstrating...and she said - can we do that for my birthday?  Yes of course!!

Stampin' Up! has a fantastic variety of rub ons, and heavy weight self adhesive die cuts!  If you haven't taken a peek at them in the catalogue...I highly recommend it!  The die cuts are featured on page 176, and the rub ons are on page 184 of the Stampin' Up! Idea Book and Catalogue!

Have a great night!  If you are reading this from your email...click on my blog title below to view the video!
