MICKY MOUSE PARTY INVITATIONS

White card stock
Black card stock
Red card stock
White buttons
Adhesives – glue stick & glue dots
Cutting tools – scissors & circle cutter

For Mickey’s Head

• Start by getting a Mickey head template for your invite.  If you Google ‘Mickey head template’ you’ll get lots of images to choose from.  Print out the template of your choice.
• Trace on black card stock and cut out with scissors.
• Next print your invitation text on white card stock.  Fit as many as you can on one sheet for less waste.
• Use a circle cutter to cut out the text so it fits on your Mickey head.  If you don’t have a circle cutter, use a small round dish or cup.
• Use glue stick to adhere the printed white card stock circle to Mickey’s head.

For the Pocket

• Using the red card stock trace around the bottom of your Mickey head, with an extra 1/2″ or so for when you glue two pieces together.  Cut out and use as a template to cut the rest out, 2 pieces needed for each pocket.
• Glue the round edges of two red half circles together to make the red pocket.
• Use glue dots to attach 2 buttons to the front of each pocket.
• Slip the head into the pocket and you’re done!
