Today we want to show you a brilliant idea for party decor designed by Candace Robichaud, a talented paper crafter from Edmonton, Alberta.  Candace transformed a miniature cereal box into a festive pinata party  invitation with a few strips of patterned paper.How cute is this?  You can’t wait to open it!
It’s actually pretty simple to make.  Candace bought some of those individual cold cereal boxes, then took out the cereal and replaced it with a party invitation and some treats.  She closed the box back up,  wrapped the box in plain white copy paper and then adhered four strips of fringed patterned paper in an overlapping pattern.   A bit of pom pom trim around the top serves as the final accent.

You can put a of stuff into a miniature cereal box.  Think about the possibilities!Don’t forget to decorate your invitations – Candace printed her invitations onto Bazzill cardstock and then added colourful washi tape and more pom pom trim.  Beautiful and festive!
Is this not a wonderful inspiring idea for your next party?   I can picture this in soft pastels for a baby shower….  or red and white for a Canada Day party….   the possibilities are endless…..    Thank you Candace for sharing your project with us!

(Among other things that keep her super busy, Candace is on the design team at Treasured Memories, a wonderful Edmonton, Alberta scrapbook store.  If you’re in the area, you can see lots of Candace’s scrapbook projects displayed in the store).
