Mon Amour Wedding Invites

Hello all!

Sorry to have been MIA. The summer is a very busy time around my house.

But in amongst all the crazy, I had an order for some wedding invites!!
The order was for five invites, all different. This is the first large order I have had! I was so excited! Word of mouth pays off :)


So I have been taking my time on these, if I rush my process I tend to get frustrated.
I used the Mon Amour paper line from Graphic 45 for all the cards. And yes, I used a lot of my scraps on these! This is why I keep everything organized.


This is the Bride's personal card. She requested the image with the saying "I carry your heart with me. I carry it in my heart."  I think my favorite part about this card is the butterflies.

I tried to subtly keep all the cards tied together in some way. I used at least three layers for each card, and I also used a different love saying from the collection for each card. This also helps tie the card into the bride's card.

I love all the paper roses in the paper, these made for great detail on the cards.

A tip I have for using bling is to line it up where you want it, and then cut it to fit. This way you can stretch out your bling!

I used quite a bit of bling and stickles for these cards. Sometimes its the little details that help pull the cards together.

I really love how all these cards turned out. This was only the second time I have used this paper, and this was the first time I had really been able to play with it.

Thanks for stopping by!!
