Stamping with friends.. it's the best!! Recently I had the opportunity to help 2 young friends with Bridal Shower invitations for their friend!! Here we are, each with our own task, creating the 30 invitations!
WARNING: stamping with friends may cause spontaneous smiles and laughter!! 🙂
They told me that the colors were red, black and white, with red roses, and that the bride-to-be also likes gold.. so.. we went to work stamping the flower from the Rose Wonder stamp set onto Whisper White notecards, then covering the front with a 3" wide panel of the Sale a Bration Botanical Garden vellum which was stamped with "celebrate today".
We added 2 punched black glimmer paper hearts to the front of the card.
As you can see below, we thought about adding black ribbon, but decided to go with a piece of the gold Metallic Glitter tape – one of the newest Sale a Bration items!
Sale a Bration is ending SOON!!!! If you don't have the beautiful Botanical Gardens vellum, or this amazing glitter tape, you have a few days left to select them as your free gifts during 2016 Sale a Bration from Stampin' Up! One free gift with each $50 in Stampin' UP! product orders until 3/31/16. Click to order online!
We added some snail adhesive under the hearts to adhere the vellum to the card, and the gold glitter tape also helps hold down the vellum.
The girls were thrilled with the outcome of the invitations, and they texted a photo to the bride-to-be for approval.. it was a fun and productive stamping date!! And guess what.. it only took us an hour!!
We used up some of the scraps of black glimmer paper to punch small hearts to add to the left inside of the card with "wedding wishes" stamped in black.
I think they turned out really classy!
I saw that Katina cut apart the rose and leaves from the Rose Wonder stamp and I thought that was a great idea.. it allows you to stamp the flower in one color and the leaves in another!! It was the perfect time-saver for this card!!

What lovely invitations! I’m sure that the bride-to-be was very happy with them. You girls did a great job.
I just copied your little chick card with the polka dot dsp and the confetti folder with the three small flowers. Thanks so much for the idea! Happy Easter!

Wow Patti…what a wonderful invitation. Love how you mixed all the elements. One hour? You are a magician! I’m crossing my fingers that the black glimmer appears in the new catalog. And the tape!! Love the tip about surgery on the rose stamp. You make a wonderful fairy godmother to the bride and her friends.
