It was really exciting to create the invitation for my Holiday Engagement Party with Disney accents (as our wedding theme is Disney!). With the after-holiday stress, it was nice to do some crafty work to relax and be creative ...I also really wanted to make use of my mickey die cutter as I was really excited to find it at Hobby Lobby when in NJ one day as NYC doesn't have one ...
I decided to do a winter-themed Disney thank you as I sent them out right after New Years and the party had been holiday themed! I started out with these supplies:
Using photoshop- I created the thank you note along with some wintry font and printed it on 67-pound white, matte cardstock:
I then used my thank you stamp along with blue Zing embossing powder, Top Boss embossing pad, and my Martha Stewart heating tool to emboss the top of my thank you note..It was a bit difficult as it created a curling effect at times but I tried heating both the top and bottom of the card to prevent the curling. While not perfect, I was excited to complete this project as it was the first time I tried embossing!
I also used my tag die-cutter to create tags with each guests name printed onto them in Disney font-this was the easier part-then simply used my puncher and some blue-white baker's twine to add it to the note.
Lastly, I used the disney die-cutter on the bottom front of the A2 cards I bought at Michaels ...and
The Final Product! DIY Disney thank you note :)
They were a hit with the guests and I found making these thank you notes by hand was a better way of truly showing my thanks to family and friends for making our engagement party wonderful!
Check back for my Disney Ladies Brunch invitation-coming soon!
