Invitations for an Asian Dinner Party

Hi Everyone,

This is my first post on my new blog. I wanted you to know that my best friend Nicole hosted a wonderful Asian Dinner Party the other night. She is a fabulous entertainer, chef, and photographer. She called me up a month or so ago and asked me to make some invitations for her for her party. I quickly thought of the Pagoda cartridge and experimented with several of the images on it. I narrowed it down to the pagoda, fan, and kimono. Here are some pictures of how the invitations turned out.







Aren't they beautiful! I had a great time making these and they were a hit at Nicole's Party.
