Shower Invitation

This is just version number one for a shower invitation I'm creating for a girlfriend... I will post the final product when I start mass producing in a few weeks.


Forget-Me-Nots are meaningful to the bride & her Mom, so I got as close as I could with Spellbinders Fresh Picked Buttercups.


I used an Altenew piercing plate for the base, with a little ink blending to warm it up.  I cut and stacked two frames using the Essential Arches dies, with a little blush ink in the corner, then layered my floral sprig overtop.  I cut the Celebrate from metallic gold cardstock, layered twice, and added a few gold pearls.


We are tweaking the colours a little to match the bridal party colours, which should be lovely!

Showered With Love Challenge

The current challenge on the Ai blog is "Showered With Love" - we want to see your Shower cards, either Baby or Wedding.  I went with wedding, as I've had this bouquet idea using the Art Impressions Watercolor stamps for a while:
 Typically, the Ai florals are used with a pot or container of some kind, but I thought they would make a great wedding bouquet (although this would make a great birthday or thank you card, too!)  I stamped my flowers in shades of pink and purpley-blue, tucked in some greenery, then hand drew in the ribbon that ties them together.  Finally, I added the stems.  I used a damp paintbrush to soften all the lines.
 I used a stitched oval die to trim my watercolour paper, matted it with some Sorbet cardstock and mounted it with pop dots onto my base.  I stitched my patterned paper with my sewing machine before adhering it to the card base, then tied a white organdy ribbon around it and finished up with some epoxy bubbles in blue & green.
 Check out what the rest of the design team has to share today over on the Ai blog, and you can link up your shower creation while you're there.
Watercolour sets used are: WC Flowers
