Wedding Invitation (Not My Own!)

Good Morning!

Today I have a card to share with you all that was made as a sample for my Cousin. Just like me she is also engaged but actually has her wedding booked, for next year.

I was very kindly asked to make the Invitations and be Maid of Honour, no pressure at all! lol

The brief for the wedding was 'Shabby Chic' with a colour scheme of Soft Pink & Green. 

As most of you can probably relate I don't have enough of the same Design Paper for all 76 invites so I will be varying the design paper but keeping the layout and the rest of the elements. Luckily I have until October to get them finished! Of course there are Evening invites too which will be kept the same, just with the sentiment altered. Inside the card are all the details for the recipient. 

INGREDIENTS -

Sentiment written on Microsoft Word

Design Papers from stash

Paper Doily, Cheesecloth, Prima Flowers & Adhesive Pearl.

Glossy Accents & Collall All Purpose Glue

Tim Holtz Paper Distressing Tool

PTW - It's A Jolly Holiday!

Good Morning!

This week over at PAPERTAKE WEEKLY we have the challenge of It's A Jolly Holiday! I decided to interpret this by making a Christmas Card and what better excuse did I need to use some of my new stash?!
I couldn't resist this new TH Christmas Stamp Set when I saw it and that is what I have used on today's card, with a C&S style.

I sprinkled some Holographic Embossing Powder over the image which gives a soft sparkle when the card catches the light. Although it isn't the easiest thing to photograph lol

INGREDIENTS -

'Stylised Woodlands' TH Stamp Set

Sprinkles by Doodlebug

Collall All Purpose Glue

INKS USED -
