Gold and Turquoise Handmade Wedding Invitations

 

"I have found the one whom my soul loves…" Song of Solomon 3:4

 sums up the theme for the following wedding invitations

 

 

 

 

 

The invitations above I recently made for a couples upcoming wedding.  The couples' wedding colors are gold and tiffany blue.  I was able to match their colors perfectly. 

 

The invitation panel is printed on a linen ecru cardstock.  This panel as well as the response card is accented with beautiful handstamped flourishes in opposite corners.  I stamped the flourishes using a gold metallic ink.  The invitation panel as well as the response card is then double mounted….first on a tiffany blue cardstock and finally on shimmery gold cardstock.

 Hello,

 

Wow!  It's been quite a while since I've posted.  Thanks for all the kind emails asking if eveything's okay.  Everything is fine, I've just been really busy these last couple of months. 

 

Anyway,  I have a really cute project for you today.  It's called an explosion box.  It is such a unique way to display photos and it is really easy to make. This box is the perfect gift and it doesn’t even need gift wrap!  The box holds up to twelve photos and folds up into a 4 x 4 box.
 

 

You will need the following to create your explosion box:

 

3 pieces of  12 x 12 cardstock

1 piece of 8 1/2 x 11 cardstock

Decorative Cardstock

 

Outside Box:  12 X 12 piece of carstock scored at 4" on all four sides. Cut out the four corners and fold on score lines like a big plus sign.  Cut 4 pieces of decorative paper to 3 3/4" square and attach to the 4 corners of your box.

 

Middle Box:  10 1/2 X 101/2 piece of carstock scored at 3 1/2 " on all four sides and again cut out the four corners and fold.  Cut 4 pieces of decorative paper to 3 1/4" square and attach to the 4 corners of your box.

 

Inside Box:  9 X 9 piece of cardstock scored at 3" on all four sides and again cut out the four corners and fold.  Cut 4 pieces of decorative paper to 2 3/4" square and attach to the 4 corners of your box.

 

Lid:  8 X 8 piece of cardstock scored at 1 7/8" on all four sides.  Cut the corners of the lid as shown here and attach with a little piece of adhesive.

 

 Attach some ribbon and /or some other embellishments to decorate your box.

Here's an explosion box that I recently made.  I will be posting this as well as a few other photo boxes in the Moonlight Creations Store a little later this afternoon.
