Wedding prep

I took this week off work to concentrate on the 80 invites i am making from scratch. We started designing in april so finally they are coming along. I have almost finished embellishing and soon i will be printing the actual invitation . The invitation has 2 stamps on the front. One has the bride and grooms name and date of marriage.
The other stamp is the floral border you can see. I have then darkened around the edges of the invite in order to make the paper look aged. This has been done with the same ink as i have used with the stamps and with a finger wrapped in cloth. Rather a lot of work because as well as that i had to cut the A4 card to specific measurements before i could begin. After cutting i used a trimmer to score the fold line so i could fold the card in half exactly. I will be most pleased when the job is done. The things we do for love☺. We had snow here this morning. It has gone but we may get more overnight. Look at extra
