Bridal Shower Invite

I recently made this bridal shower invite for a co-worker for her daughter's bridal shower held this past Sunday. The theme was "Las Vegas". They even hired an Elvis impersonator for the shower!

Wedding Invitation

My sister-in-law gave me the honor of making her wedding invitations for her wedding held on July 15th, 2011.

The color for her wedding was a gorgeous, shimmery turquoise/sea green (see picture left of my bridesmaid dress & hubby's vest/tie). So, naturally, I used the same color for the invites. The base of the invite is that color in cardstock. I printed the invites in turquoise font, as well, on a cream invitation background to make the wording "pop".

The invite was finished off with a vellum covering and  a shimmery and sheer turquoise and ivory ribbon woven through the top.

Here is a scanned copy of one of the invites:

Simple, Handmade Christmas Cards

For those with busy schedules, simplicity is the name of the game. This Christmas is no different for this full-time working Mom of two rambunctious boys!

Evan wanted to help me make some Christmas cards. Thanks to some gorgeous card stock paper courtesy of DCWV The Linen Closet stack & some "retro"-Christmas stickers by K&Company we were able to make the cute (and simple) cards you see pictured here.
