marta12's Blue wedding

Once I got into DIYs I can't seem to stop. I really wanted to get my bridesmaids cards that not only have something to do with the wedding but give them a little bit of my personality.

I bought aqua note cards and matching envelopes on ebay. I also got Purse stickers and a Thank you stamp.

I embossed Thank you on the note card.

NOTE ABOUT EMBOSSING: If you are using metalic/shiny paper use a regular ink pad; I've been using Archival Ink in black. If your paper is like linen or notecard paper use the embossing ink. The regular ink gets absorbed by regular paper fast. By the time you pour the powder its pretty dry. On the other hand the embossing ink is a little greasy and stays on top of the paper, however when used on metallic/glossy cardstock and pocketfolds the embossed image easily comes off (its almost like you made a sticker on wax paper)

I added a different purse sticker on each card and rounded the corners with a rounder, possibly my favorite little tool.

I also embossed a damask design on each envelope.

The groomsmen's cards wont be as elaborate because men just don't care about stuff like that.
