How to Make Invitations for a Scrapbooking Party

You can make invitations for a scrapbooking party with supplies that you use for your keepsake recording craft. Use tools and materials to make the cards to invite family and friends to join you for an afternoon of scrapbooking, snacks and socializing.

Things You'll Need

• Card stock 8 1/2 x 11 inch sheets
• Bone folder or craft stick
• "You Are Invited" rubber stamp
• Ink pad
• 1/2-inch square punch tool
• 1/4-inch alphabet sticker
• Glitter pen
• Black marker medium or fine tip

Instructions

1. Fold cardstock in half. Use a bone folder or craft stick to smooth a neat fold.

2. Stamp the top section of the front cover with the "You Are Invited" rubber stamp.

3. Write the word "Scrapbooking" with the gel pen in the center of the invitation cover. The word should be at least 1/4-inch high.

4. Punch out five 1/2 inch squares for each invitation.

5. Glue the squares near the bottom on the front cover. Place P-A-R-T-Y stickers on the individual squares. Your front cover now reads "You are Invited Scrapbooking Party".

6. Use black marker to write the date, time and place for the party inside of the invitation. Make a list of the supplies your guests should bring to the party with their photos.

7. Embellish with small rubber-stamped characters or stickers. Close the card with a large sticker.

8. Write the name of the invited guest on the back of the invitation. Hand deliver the invitation.

Tips & Warnings

• Use left over scrapbooking stickers for your invitation components. If you need to mail invitations cut the cardstock to fit a business size envelope before you fold it in half.
