The following wedding invitations I am making for a couple getting married this fall.  These invitations are sure to add a refreshing and unique touch to their wedding. 

 

The main pocketfold as well as the invitation panel and front closure are made from a lovely ecru linen cardstock.  This cardstock is surely becoming one of my favorites to work with.  The invitation panel is stamped with a flowering vine in a deep green ink.  If you look closely you can see that the outermost edges of the vine are accented with a subtle chocolate brown ink.  The invitation panel as well as the front closure is mounted on a piece of orange cardstock with a subtle shimmer.  The small flowers are stamped with a coordinating orange ink and accented with a small pearl.

Can you see the subtle chocolate brown on the outermost edges of the vine?  This effect is created using a technique called "rock 'n roll."  Check back tomorrow and I'll have a tutorial showing you how it's done.

Hi There,

 

I’ve been working with a client from Australia who wanted something similar to the Love Embossed Wedding Invitation I had recently made.  Here’s what I came up with.

 

 

 

You would be surprised with the trouble I had trying to find the right color but this color is absolutely perfect.  It is called blush blossom from stampin up.  It is a cross between a pale pink and a light coffee color.  The stamped image is from papertrey ink.  The image is embossed with clear embossing powder which provides a shade darker blush blossom. 

 

The "LOVE " stamp on the closure is also from stampin’ up.  and is stamped on a vanilla cardstock in blush blossom ink.  This image is also embossed which proves a shiny slightly raised image.

 

Be sure to subsribe to my blogs feed (you can unsubscribe at any time) so you won’t miss any new items I’ll be posting.  Stop by tomorrow for a look at some wedding favors I’ve been working on.

Hi There,

 

I’ve been working on creating a custom monogram wedding invitation ensemble for a couple.  The actual monogram I created using microsoft word.  The flourishes are created using the stamp set, Finest Flourishes from papertrey ink.  The fourishes have been heat embossed on both the outside of the invitation and also the invitation panel inside.

 

The monogram on the invitation has the first initial of the bride and groom along with the wedding date.  The menu card and thankyou notes feature a B monogram which represents the bride and grooms married name. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This particular pocketfold is becoming one of my most popular designs.  To see a couple of other wedding invitations using this design visit

The following is a pocketfold wedding invitation I recently made for a couple getting married this fall.  Christine and Frank wanted something simple and elegant.  This pocketfold wedding invitation was hand made from a piece of ecru cardstock which I heat embossed with a lovely flourish design from the stamp set, "Finest Flourishes" by Papertreyink. The heat embossing produces a shiny raised image. The invitation was then layered on a piece of champagne carstock and mounted inside. 

A simple ampersand provides an elegant closure to this stunning invitation.

The following is a pocketfold wedding invitation I made for a couple getting married this fall.  They chose the colors navy and gold.  I used the stamp set, "Finest Flourishes,"  from papertrey ink to create these gorgeous invitations.  The LOVE stamp on the front closure is from the stampin’ up stamp set, "Love is a great thing."  The pocketfold is made from a piece of 12 x 12 navy cardstock which has been layered with brushed gold cardstock.

 

 

Here’s a photo of the invitations all stamped with the flourish design. They were all heat set and lightly embossed with a metallic gold ink.

 

 

  

Here’s a closeup of the stamped flourish deisgn on the invitation panel.  The metallic gold ink provides a subtle gold shimmer.

The following is a wedding invitation I made recently for a couple getting married this fall.  I used a burgundy colored cardstock as the main color with gold and green accents. 

 

The invitation wording is printed on a piece of vellum which has been placed over a piece of whisper white cardstock which I hand stamped with a leaf stamp in various shades of burgundy, gold and green. 

 

Some of the leaves have been heat embossed with white embossing powder.  These images I then sponged with burgundy ink.  The embossed design resists the ink a creates a stunning image. 

 

This white stamped piece along with the vellum overlay is adhered to a piece of shimmery gold cardstock and finally to a piece of burgundy cardstock.

 

I attached a hand made burgundy grosgrain ribbon to complete the invitation.

The following is a wedding invitation I made for a couple getting married this fall.  They coordinated the colors of their invitations with their wedding colors which are platinum and merlot.  They chose a pocketfold style wedding invitation. The main color of the invitation is a brushed silver cardstock which I heat embossed with a floral design.  The complimentary color is called rich razzleberry which was a very close match to the brides flowers which are calla lilies.  I was even able to find a calla lily stamp for the tag on the front.  A platinum ribbon provides an elegant finish.

This is my submission for the may papertrey blog hop.  I created a wedding invitation using the papertrey ink set, "honey bees."

 

The wedding invitation is printed on whisper white cardstock and mounted on wild wasabi and so saffron cardstock from stampin’ up.

 

The blades of grass are stamped in new leaf palette ink, which is a very close match to wild wasabi.  The flowers are stamped in so saffron and orangerie ink.

The following is a wedding invitation I made using a new stamp set I just received from Papertrey Ink called, With Sympathy.  This invitation is double mounted on pink and green cardstock.  The floral vine design has been stamped using stampin’ up mellow moss ink.  The small roses are stamped using toile pink.  I used a pale pink satin ribbon to make the ribbon corners.  For instructions on how to make your own ribbon corners visit my tutorial page.

 

The finished size of this invitation is 5" x 8" I love the simple yet elegant design of this invitation.
