I've been burning paper!

This was so fun and fast to put together.


I used the Lifes a Beach cart for the skull and put a rhinestone on his eye patch. I printed the text onto parchment looking cardstock. The font is Black castle.


Some of the text came from an invite I saw on 2peas, the rest is my imagination.


To give it that "old" look I took a lighter and burned the edges.


I'll have to take a photo of just the text.
Hang on I'll be back.........



I'm back!
I went and took a quick picture of the text for you. Aren't I sweet?? What? you said I should have done this in the first place? Well...I was in a hurry last night and forgot. At least I did it before I mailed them out today. Some people..grumble..grumble.
Sorry, the twisted part of me sometimes likes to have imaginary conversations with myself. Make sense?

This party is really shaping up to be fun. With a slip and slide, pirate cake. each kid gets some booty to take home. Yeah I think they will have fun.
