Mickey birthday invitations


Hot Dog!    Hot Dog!     Hot Digity Dog!


My little guy is turning two in few weeks!  Sometimes I can not believe how fast time goes by.  I usually do themes for their parties to make it a little more exciting for them.  He likes Mickey Mouse these days so it seemed appropriate to do a Mickey theme.  I wanted to make some fun invitations to match, so I got to it last night when the kids went to bed.  Here is what I came up with...

{Find the tutorial HERE}

I looked online for an outline of Mickey's head and used that for the template.  
The Mickey head with all the info slides into the the red bottom. 



They're all ready to be mailed.  Next project for his party will be making cupcake toppers.  
I'll share those when they're done, too.   More to come!


Linking up with some of THESE fun link parties!

    This was the theme my best friend used for her baby's first birthday party. However, your invites are the cutest things ever.

    Those are really cute.

    They look like they would be a great way to present a home movie DVD, too.

    This is adorable. I am featuring this at somedaycrafts.blogspot.com. I had a post with a Mickey invite that is getting a lot of hits, but that blog has since been taken down and the link doesn't work. So I am referring all those people to your blog! It is featured on an October, 9, 2010 post.
