Perfect Princess
So my kind cousin lent me this set to play around with and i came up with this darling invite... thinking ahead a bit for my girl's b-days! ;) Very simple to do:
Start w/ sheet 5 1/2" X11" and then score from each end 3 1/4" for your fold. Then cut a corner off each side so you make the 'V'! tip:I cut one side and then trace it on the other side so they are the same! To make sure it all stays together snug, i used sticky strip and put it WAY on the bottom edge.
Then for your inside piece(invite), my base of soft suede was 4 1/4" X 5" and then you can layer up from there according to how you like it!
This size fits right into the standard envelope snuggly but it works!
The belly band i made was just a 11"x 2.5" strip that i scallop punches and then wrapped it around, add a layer of soft suede to tie it all together.
On the invite part i stamped the crown in soft suede and then lined w/ my 2 way glue pen and dumped on the glitter for my 'wow' factor! I also added to the word 'princess' on the front~
supplies~
paper: cameo coral, soft suede, whisper white
ink: soft suede, cameo coral
stamps:Perfect Princess, Really retro(for the 'you're invited')
