I had the opportunity to create wedding invitations for a friend of a friend of my sister-in-law. My sister-in-law's wedding was the first time I attempted to create wedding invitations, so I was nervous about accepting this order from someone other than family.
The mother-in-law, mother and bride were so easy to talk with as we created something that the bride was excited to hand out. The top photo is the final version, but wanted to share with you all the versions I came up with (below). The bride wanted sunflowers on her invitations, so I gave her 3 to choose from:
After choosing the one they liked the best. She wanted a pocket card invitation, so with the photo above you can definitely see the pocket card design.
I created the pocket card out of 12x12 cardstock. I cut 2" from the bottom. On the Simply Scored Plate - I scored on 2.25" and 7.25".... and I rotated it 90 degrees (counter- clockwise) and scored on 7". With the scoring done, I trimmed the bottom piece to only include the pocket part.
Here is what the closed invitation looks like:
I'm so happy that they are pleased with the results of all my hard work.
Thanks for looking!
