"My Pinkalicious Blog Hop Friday" Challenge Entry

Hi everyone! Second day of my blog! I've been having fun traveling through the blogging world visiting other talented craft people! I'm amazed to see what they have designed! I particpated in two blog hops! The first was from Robyn @ My Pink Stamper. It was her Pinkalicious Blog Hop and the challenge is to create something crafty with the color black and any of your favorite colors. My daughter's birthday was last month so I did a Mickey and Minnie Clubhouse party! I did some centerpieces, goodie bags, and the invites. I realized that I didnt save one invite to play in my scrapbook, so I decided to make the exact one to place in my scrapbook. Here is the invite I did.
Receipe:
Disney's Mickey & Friends Cartridge: Mickey Head
Shapes Cartridge: Pink Circle
Pink Ribbon
I ran the paper through the printer to print the info.
 There is a black strip placed there to omit the address and phone #.
 The second blog hop I did today was the Love Blog Hop @ http://keekerzcrafts.blogspot.com/  . It was fun visiting everyone's blog and seeing what fantastic things they have made. Please check out these two blog hops! They have some awesome giveaways! Have a great day and happy crafting!
