We had a party on Saturday for my mom and dad's 50th anniversary. Their actual anniversary is May 25. The party was at our house and we had it catered by Rich & Charlies. It was a lot of fun...just family and a few close friends. It was great spending time with everyone. The weather was great so the kids ate outside on the patio and then played in the yard after dinner.
My mom and dad brought their wedding album. Of course the kids thought it was funny to see grandma and grandpa as youngsters. My dad also put together an album of pictures including my sister and I when we were little. The kids got a kick out of that too. I guess it's hard for kids to imagine that their parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles were kids once themselves.
This is the invitation I made. Notice, there is no stamping. I created it using the Cricut and the @Stampin' Up ticket punch. The card stock @Stampin' Up brushed gold and shimmy white. I've never used the gold card stock before but it's really pretty. It's hard to capture the true color in a photo though but it's a very soft brushed gold color, hence the name...hee hee hee.
I've been busy making more cards and will upload them soon. Until next time...

Very cool! It is fun sometimes to do stuff with no stamping, makes it a little challenge! :D
