A few weeks ago I posted a sample wedding invitation that I made for my brother & his fiance. These are two of the other samples I came up with. They ended up choosing this one. I'll have to make 200 of them! I am going to start ordering supplies shortly and get working on them. It should be fun. The only part I'm dreading is dry embossing & cutting out all those daisies for the invites... 2 daisies per invite x 200 = 400 daisies. YIKES! And then the save the date card has 3 daisies on each one. That's another 600 daisies! I think I'll be buying my future sister-in-law a light box, stylus and template so she can suffer with me... er.... help me emboss some of them!
Heidi, Heidi, Heidi...Just the thought of embossing all those flowers by hand makes my hands hurt! The invitation they chose is beautiful and I'm sure even with all the work you will enjoy this project. I think I might consider a Big Kick or something for all that embossing though. :)
ReplyDeleteAll the samples are great. Just thinking about making the invites makes my head hurt! Let me know if you end up needing some help. I am good at assembly line and grunt work.
ReplyDeleteI love the one they chose....it's really nice. My gosh.....you will be swimming in daisies though! I bet you will not want to see a daisy for awhile after your all done.
ReplyDeleteomg, you made some seriously wonderful wedding invitations! :D I don't know when your deadline is, but I can say from experience that you should start asap! :) I hope you have the time to ENJOY making your invitations- I was in such a rush with mine that I was sick of them by the end! :P Good luck, and thanks for sharing- you're such an inspiration! :D
ReplyDeleteHeidi.......I am speechless!!! STUNNING!!! Is the word I want!!! Your brother and SIL are very lucky to have you in their lives. Good luck on getting everything accomplished!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so pleased that you posted this!! I have been wondering which ones she chose : ) I wish I could offer to emboss for you! I don't have that plate or I would. If you have two you could send it to me and I would help you!! Let me know : )

WOW!! First of all let me say. Your work on these is absolutely breathtaking! I love them!!! And admire you as always. They are extra lucky to have you as the creator for their custom wedding invitations!
ReplyDeleteI an also with Patti, wish I could help you out.
And I thought I was busy!

I love the one they chose. A lot of work but beautiful. Good luck with the daisies! Which template is that?
ReplyDeleteYou do such nice work and no-one dry embosses like you!! I have several things that I received in swaps and love them all. Have fun with all those invites. We might not see you for awhile. lol
ReplyDeleteHey Heidi.
ReplyDeleteI just had to pop on and tell you how much I love your work. You create such beautiful things. The top invitation of today's post is my absolute favorite (I know it doesn't matter, since she didn't pick that one, but I still had to tell you ;) )
heheheh...I am so glad that you enjoy embossing. I was so amazed at CK last year watching you so relaxed doing embossing and cutting. Half my projects still aren't finished.
