This was a favorite at a wedding fair I did yesterday in Hudson, Wisconsin.  The wedding fair was lots of fun – I really enjoyed meeting people excited about their futures.  The energy was amazing! 

This invitation is 5 x 7 and has a nice pocket for the extra info you need to send with your invitation.  You'll love the quality and weight of Stampin' Up!'s cardstock as you personalize your wedding with your own invitations.  It's an economical choice too! 

The elegant details on this card really stand out.  This invitation was originally designed by my friend Dena Rekow.  I had to refine it just slightly.  If you have a wedding or other event in your future that needs a special invitation, give me a call for a consultation.  We'll create a sample you'll be happy with.  Then you can use my classroom to put your invites together – my gift to you is that all of your cardstock will be cut for you! 

On another note, winter has struck again here in Minnesota – OMG – can we be done already!  There has to be another foot out there.  The one thing I did love about this storm is that my daughter came to stay with us so that she was closer to work.  It sure was fun relaxing last night with Jim and Mandy – keep in mind she is 27 and this just doesn't happen much anymore!  She even came and watched the news in bed with me this morning! 

This goooorgeous card uses the new Elegant Lines embossing folder (p 214) and the "hi" embosslet from p 215.  Very yummy!  This card was one of the samples made at my Big Shot class this month.  It uses vellum cardstock.  When using vellum cardstock in your big shot with an embossing folder, use tab 2.  If you don't know what I'm talking about perhaps you should check out my next Big Shot class on the second Wednesday of every month! 

Also check out the color of the cardstock – it is an In Color called Blushing Bride.  Remember the In Colors are now here for 2 years!!  yep – we'll still get new ones but, they'll last longer (kind of like the tootsie pop commercials of old!).
