It seems like it was only a couple weeks ago that I finished my week long marathon of Christmas card making, but as I glance at the calendar I discover that it is nearly time to start my seeds for the garden. Right now I am working on projects for a summer wedding...not mine. I have the task of making the save the date and the wedding invitations for a very close family friend, Cindy, and her fiance Bill. Their wedding is at the end of July, outside, surrounded by forest, on Bill's parent's acerage. It will be a very casual wedding.The colours, orange, pink and yellow, reflect the fun and relaxed atmosphere that perfectly describe the couple and how they want the wedding to feel.
The Save the Date will be a magnet with the couple's photo placed inside of a vellum folder and attached to a postcard type card then placed in an envelope for mailing. My Cricut has cut all of the magnets, all the strips, hearts and vellum folders. I have also cut all of the stamps used for this project with my very first Cricut stamp kit and the postcard will be embossed using the new Cricut embossing folders. I am in the middle of assembly line mode, but as soon as I have one entirely done I will post a picture. You will have to rely on your imagination for a a few more days....so I hope I at least described them adequately....giggle, giggle.
The wedding invitation will rely heavily on my Cricut too....but I have to keep some secrets for now. What I will say is they will be original, colourful, fun, detailed, and very custom! I am not using one thing that is pre-made or 'ready to use'. I promise to share when they are completed.
Back to work!
