Billie's Scrappetique: Cricut Old West Birthday Invitations

Hello from Texas!

This is Billie, from Billie’s Scrappetique here with my very first project for Scrapbook Pal! I’m so honored to be a part of this amazing team and to be working with such an awesome group of ladies! :-)

This is an invitation I created for my daughter’s birthday party. I cut the horse and the fence from Cricut Old West cartridge. I used the “wanted poster” for the invitation information inside, but silly me! I didn’t take a pic before I wrote in all of the invitations (person info, ya know?). I’ll try to be better next time! *sigh*

I used Ranger Vintage Photo to ink the edges of the papers, horse, etc. I adhered the pink polka dot paper to the card using my Scotch ATG, which I love, love, love (thanks, Mom!)! I used Ranger Star Dust Stickles around the edges of the “Let’s Ride” banner. Speaking of “Let’s Ride”, do you see that cute sentiment stamp? That’s from the Pink By Design Cowgirl Up stamp set! That set has a LOT of cute sentiments that I’ll be using again and again!

I used Glossy Accents to piece the horse together, as well as to adhere the horse to that adorable pink polka dot paper! I used Pop Dots to attach the fence and the banner. I added a piece of pink ribbon to the horse’s mane and finished off the card with a piece of twine. My daughter’s reaction? She loved them! She’s 8, so she’s still young enough to love me to pieces and think everything I do is wonderful. It sure would be nice if that lasted forever! ;-)
