Coluzzle Revisited

Does anyone miss their Coluzzle? I can hear you naysayers out there and I know we have many more advanced systems now, but I still have my Coluzzle templates. I just couldn't bear to get rid of them. Yes, I am a hoarder! Fortunately (or unfortunately---since it reinforces my hoarding tendencies), I found a use for my Coluzzle circle template recently. My daughter is going to have a "make your own pizza party" for her upcoming birthday so I started searching for interesting ways to make the invites. I ran across this wonderful video from five years ago which shows how to make a pizza slice shaped card using none other than the Coluzzle. Too bad I got rid of all of my Coluzzle things...wait, NO I DIDN'T! Anyway, here's the video by Christine David. Thank you Christine!



Our cards were much simpler than Christine's but we made seven of them...this morning...and we finished right before going to the bus stop so my daughter could deliver them in school! Whew! Good thing we typed up the info for the insides on the computer!
 
 
A big bonus is that I used scraps for the toppings and crusts. Love it when I can use my scraps!
 
If you don't have a Coluzzle circle template, I'm sure you could use something like the Cricut...or a plate! I was thinking tht if we used circle cards that it might look cute as a whole pizza too.
