Invites

With a year to go it is marginally early for the invites however I am planning to make them all myself, which adds on some work...so here's the test one.

Bought a stamp which says 'wedding invitation, not as easy as using the little stickers widely sold by craft stores but i think it will look a little more 'hand made'

I already have a selection of embossing powders to use with the inks from making Christmas cards.

Not easy to see from the pic, all clear ink with various embossing powders...the left one is iridescent, middle is silver, right is black with sparkles. 

On white paper, purple ink with iridescent embossing powder

On a tag purple ink with iridescent embossing powder

Got some scissors with decorative edging to trim the edge

Paper doily simple decoration with punch hole (I punched one too many holes in the right good job it's just a practise!)

Added a discrete button to tie in the button theme...

Bit of ribbon and attach the tag. You have to untie the ribbon to open the invite - possibility will look at using purple twine over ribbon...more experimentation may be needed.
