Hi and welcome back :)


I would like to share with you the invitations that I was working on a few weeks ago - they have been delivered so now I can show you - This is how it started with creating the backgrounds - Tim Holts Distress Stains and getting Inky!

The invitations are 'Save the Date' for a 10 year anniversary get together for my Brother and Sister-in-law,  I was looking for more of an elegant  beach theme to tie in with their beach wedding so the silver wash made a nice touch. (10 years - where does the time go!)

 There was lots of cutting, printing and creating... I made little heart shakers which also tied in to the beach theme representing sand. I LOVE these cards!

I added a personal feature - there are 6 blue crystals in each heart - representing the 6 members of the family xx

It took a bit of time making the 35 invitations - lots of little steps to make the cards unique and beautiful - It was all worth it! They are printed on the inside and also the back.

I am tempted now to play a bit more - I  was thinking black/red with red hearts and shakers could make a nice "Valentine" or "Love" card - or playing with different colours this would make nice wedding or engagement invitations or cards. Something to add to my inspiration list!

Hiya!


Well I have been playing with the website now for months and I am happy to say that it is ready to launch. YAY! I still need to work on some of the pages and the online shop- but at least I can start sharing.

So here is my blog sharing my creations, creative tips and inspiration through this site rather than just posting a couple of things on Facebook.

I am super excited today with a huge paper delivery from 'House of Paper' and a great big box of embellishments from '8Seasons'. Look at all this yumminess!

I have started to put together invitation samples and will load these over the next couple of weeks - cant wait to share!
