Inkling: halloween party part 1- mummy invitation

Let the Halloween fun begin! Candy corn, witches on broomsticks, trick or treaters and parties.

If you’re planning a Halloween party this year, you might like this mummy-inspired Halloween invitation I created.

I printed out the invitations leaving plenty of room between the lines of type. I used gauze from our first aid kit, tore off pieces and glued the edges to the card.
Once the glue dried, I trimmed the gauze edges.

The Halloween fun will continue tomorrow. Check back for matching mummy party projects.

    Funny! Just the other day I made out of gauze some wrapping ribbon. Have a look here if you like: http://hoergis-stempeldesign.blogspot.com/2010/10/eine-mullbinde-zur-geburt.html It's in German, but you can see what I did to mine.

    Great idea! Thanks for sharing. Will be back tomorrow... ines

    I love this, Carolyn! I'm going to give it a mention on Dollar Store Crafts in a roundup sometime in the next week or two, and I can't wait to see the rest of the projects!

    Thanks for sharing with us at A Crafty Soiree! I came by earlier to comment on your mummy box and I like how this ties into that theme too.

    Love it! How did you present the invites? Big envelope? Rolled?

    Thank you all so much for your comments. This was such a fun theme!
    FYI - I created the invitations to fit in a #10 regular envelope.
    Thanks again.
