Simple but Fun Invitations

Good morning and welcome back to the blog.  I am sharing a fun Invitation I created using the new Invitation stamp set along with the Morning Brew & You're Invited  stamp sets.  This is for a coffee date with a good friend that is going through some medical testing.  I thought it would be a good opportunity to sit down and have a heart to heart chat!

This card is an A2 sized card.  I created it as a top fold card with the invitation on the front panel and left the inside blank, so I can write a note.  You could easily make this a post card style on just a panel.  I used Kraft card stock as the base and the top card panel is white and die cut using the Hand Torn Rectangle dies.  This panel is layered on a dark brown card panel cut slightly larger.

I started stamping the Invitation stamp on the white card panel.  I then used the You're Invited stamps to created the invitation.  The title, for, where, when and time are all stamped in Raven Ink on the lines of the invitation.  I then added the embellishments from the Morning Brew stamp set.  These are stamped in Iced Tea  or Coffee Bean ink or a combination of the two.  The "my Home" stamp is a combination of stamps from With Affection and Family Collage stamp sets.  The numbers are from the new Tracks & Treads stamp set.  You can mix and match stamps from all sorts of sets to create a fun, eclectic invitation!

I love the mix of fonts used in the Collage family of stamps.  They are so fun to create with!  I hope this gives you inspiration to create today!
