I bought my invitations from the popular wedding site Wedding Paper Divas. While I loved them as is, I thought they were definitely missing that special touch. My mom whipped out her Silhouette machine and we tried a few samples for decorative tags. We tried circle shapes in a few colors, but I decided on hearts in a champagne cardstock. It has a slight shimmer, but nothing over-the-top. Adding black and white bakers twine finished off the project.
I love how the invitations turned out. Nelson liked them too, which was great, because we might have made about 40 of them before I asked what he thought. Whoops! :) Big kudos to my Girls Team partner for tying the bakers twine. It was knotted at the end to secure the hearts in place, and I did NOT have the patience for that part. I know, I know, I'm supposed to be working on that...
So, invites are out, RSVPs are coming back, we have a few more chalkboard signs to finish, and in two months our blog will officially be wedding project free! ;-)
