The image itself was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black onto white card, then cut out using Nestabilities Petite Scalloped Ovals, S4-139. I used the second to largest die, then used the largest to cut out another oval from Red Glitter card, and one from Tim Holtz Core'dinations blue paper.
The blue oval was cut roughly in half from the bottom left to the top right.
The image was coloured with Promarkers, and I used a pale grey to add a little 'ground' for them to run on.The 'You're Invited' sentiment was one from an Octagonal wood block I bought at the NEC years ago, and is also stamped in Memento black. I added the blue half oval to the back of the image with a little DST, then used some silicone glue spotted on the back of the image to matt the whole thing to the red glitter card. Silicone glue is ideal for this, as it will stick to the rough surface of glitter without a problem.
My base card is in topfold format, and I added a strip of red ribbon to the top, and a strip of the blue dotty ribbon along the bottom, then added the image panel in the centre with foam dots.
