bridal shower!
This past weekend, a few local girls and I got together for a bridal shower & dinner. One of my bridesmaids is an amazing designer and the other a talented artist, so it was no surprise when this beautiful invitation showed up in my mailbox! Amy Jones and Ali Hinks designed it, drew it, printed it, added those little dots with puffy paint embossing gel, made a hand-drawn type envelope liner, rounded all the corners… I mean, are they the best or what.

I was wondering how those dots were done! I was just playing around with my heating gun this weekend. How completely gorgeous are these!! I love the different textures. That drawing is perfect!

Those look great. I may have to try that embossing gel too, if it will work with screen printing ink.

that is one stylish looking invitation. Do your friends do this professionally? They may be on to something here. The colour combo plus the design/texture carried through the envelope and invite are terrific.
