The ex carnival club of my DH is having a 21st party. I don't want to go (might have to yet) but have agreed that I will make them a fab card so they don't think I'm being off. Any ideas guys? Needs to be truly, truly fab.

Thank you, I know you won't let me down.

Thats a tricky one! You can buy little flashing lights for cards - but you might need rather a lot! How about a scrapbook type montage of past photos in the shape of 21 ?

Um, to take that route- about 30k

A fancy 21st card might be a better option, I thought of a wine bottle / champagne one? I Do have a die cut tractor (I ordered it from America a year ago and forgot all about it), they're based on a farm... but my brain just isn't ticking tonight.

The float theme was Phantom of the Opera, but i've never seen it.

Their first float was called blub blub pass the port- port, waiters and jellyfish.

Ok so what I have decided to do:

A port bottle card, I found a glam Karen Foster paper called Ferns to make it from- label in the centre, claret colour, edged in dark green ribbon and embossed gold corners, 'Masqueraders Carnival Club, 1986 Vintage'. Then when opened- a big octopus pop up, to match the one on the front of their first ever card, blub blub pass the port. I have colour matched it to Bazzill card.

Yay or nay?

Yay! Should look fab and show that you've really thought about it.

sounds reflective and really cool! I'm sure your club will enjoy your tribute

EX club

(for anyone who saw my other thread on invites from people you really don't want to see again.....)

Magnanimous to the last.
