Speed Racer birthday invitation

I made these invites for my youngest's 2nd birthday next month, I can't believe he's almost 2 - I just had him yesterday, didn't I??!

Since we got him a big race car track for his birthday, I decided to go with the race car theme for his party!  I used the race car from Boys Will Be Boys cricut cart.  I used Kraft cardstock for the base and some new cardstock for the race car that I got from JoAnn's last week, I really like it - it cut so great in my cricut and embossed perfectly in my cuttlebug!  I used the diamond plate embossing folder for the circle behind the car, twine from We R Memory Keepers, the speed racer sentiment is from My Pink Stamper and I used the Teeny Tag Greetings stamp and matching tag die from My Creative Time for the "You're Invited" tag.


On the inside, I put a piece of the grey cardstock that matches the circle on the front then I will print the party details and adhere them to the grey cardstock and it'll be ready to mail.


I'm entering this into this week's challenge at My Craft Spot: Announcements & Invitations.
