I have been having a great time this weekend stamping! I've been working on wedding invites(surprise!), wedding treat boxes, thank you cards and shower invites. Whew! I can't wait to finish a wedding invite so I can share it. Hopefully by the end of the week:) This little shower invite is for my best friend's daughter's shower and I had such a great time creating it that I wanted to share. I used the carousel note to begin with and decided that it needed a little bit of texture so I used the small dots from the Big Shot Texturz Die. I added half of a circle scallop, also for the Big Shot, and made shallow, large scallops across the bottom with the 1 3/4" circle punch. I stamped the handle in silver using the stem from a retired set, Build a Blossom and added a white taffeta ribbon. I printed the actual invite on whisper white and cut a circle and added it to the back. The carousel notes are actually from the old In Colors, but I needed to make use of them. I thought they turned out pretty cute so I couldn't wait to share. I hope you are all having as much fun as I am!!!
Love this, Lisa! Can't wait to see more!
ReplyDeleteLisa, those are really cute shower invitations! I wonder if the new Clear Circle Die for the Big Shot would work great for cutting out the wording or a picture of the couple? I haven't ordered any of the clear dies yet and my Circle Cutter is on backorder now for 3 weeks, but it might also work. What did you use, Lisa?
ReplyDeleteI used my Coluzzle. When I tried using the Circle Cutter, the paper wrinkled because I had cut the sheet in half. I think it would have worked fined if I had left the sheet whole.
ReplyDeleteLisa, you have some of the best ideas! Your many uses for the carousel notes are so neat -- when I purchase a bunch, it will be because of you!
