Butterfly Basics Invites

Hello Doily Wedding ensemble

I especially love the hand cut, embossed, painted hearts I made, all 100 of them! each one unique. The Shimmery White CS I used for the menu/name cards & bomboniere added a nice touch of bling. Coastal Cabana, Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla & Shimmery White CS were used, the hearts were coloured with a mix of re-inkers Pool Party & Coastal Cabana so that co-ordinated nicely with & the Pool Party Seam Binding. I went through 1 1/2 white embossing powder tubs, that was very time consuming as the doily stamp is large & I stamped in both corners, lucky I had my sister here to help with that & it took us a full day to do about 90.
As usual my photo's don't do these justice they look so much nicer IRL.

Teya's 12th Birthday invites

 In between my nieces wedding in Sydney, new carpet & painting going on at home (my craft room half packed away) I had to get Teya's invites made, I had my order still packed in the box it arrived in so I whipped these up with what I had, I was thrilled with how they turned out.
Ingredients:
Banner Blast SAB stamp set & coordinating punch, Sweet Sorbet DSP also a free SAB product & some Gold Bakers Twine from the new Occasions catalogue. Colours are Basic Black, Crisp Cantaloupe & Pool Party, stamped images also use Pistachio Pudding & Summer Starfruit ink.
I asked my dear friend & team member Tracey M to whip up some cupcakes & wow they were so pretty, she also made up the lolly party favors for Teya, who was so delighted & grateful. Thank you Tracey for helping us out & creating such beautiful sweet treats!

Black & Razzle Weddiing Invites

4 rolls of ribbon tied into bows, took a little longer than expected!
All stamped & ready to go in this pic just waiting 'til they sent & received & then I can post individual pics.

Owl Occasions PJ party invite

Teya's Birthday invites for a PJ Slumber Party. Colours are Calypso Coral, Baja Breeze & Daffodil Delight -it's the Creative Combo in the Color Coach, I used Early Espresso & Wild Wasabi for the stem & leaves. Sadly "Owl Occasions" stamp set has retired for now, fingers crossed it's in the next catalogue. I love this versatile set.

Birthday Invites

 Double digits for our Our little girl this year! Petite Pocket invites in her favourite colour. Not sure to add the butterfly? I just have to print the inserts, add a tab to the top & some ribbon. I will miss the Glimmer paper (currently available in the summer mini) but I have a feeling (fingers crossed) it will carry over.

Pizza Party this Way Birthday Invitations

I love doing Invites & these are the lastest ones I recently finished. Designed for a Woodfired Pizza Party in the Park. I used "Party This Way" Stamp Set & the colours are Basic Black, Whisper White, Pumkin pie, Poppy Parade & Daffodil Delight. I love the matching Envelopes (masked the balloons). I'm also doing matching party favours but can't show you those 'till after the party.
Here's a close up so you can see the detail. Lots of punching, cutting & I even sewed the Linen thread through the Banner which was stamped directly onto the Whisper White peice with Poppy Parade ink using the SAMJ, then I stamped again tone on tone with Daffodil Delight & PumPkin Pie & cut out the inside triangle to layer ontop of the poppy Parade ones.

Wedding invites in Black, Vanilla & Mambo

I've been designing my nephews wedding stationary & what a great opportunity to try out my new products, loving the Elegant Lines folder & yummy Satin & Tafetta 1/8" Ribbons. The printing will make a difference but so far I'm happy with what I've come up with, these samples are off to Sydney today for approval, LOL.

Baby Shower invites

I did 2 samples for baby Boy shower invites & this was the one chosen, took 2 hours to make 45. Colours are the same as this one here which would have been a little more work & simple was the request.

Nursery Necessities baby shower invite

No pastels & not to cute was the request, I hope I have created the perfect invite?
Love these colours together; Kraft, Night of Navy & Riding Hood Red. It didn't take long to put this together & my desk is not it's usually mess when creating & not to many left over bits either, lets just hope it's liked.

Special Blessings invitation

Teya will be recieveing the Sacraments of Confirmation & First Holy Communion next month & these are her invitations - lots of cutting! She loves blue & I decided to use Blush Blossom (inspired by these gorgeous cards that Angie did here) both to soften & make it a little more feminine, the flowers from "Vintage Vogue" make the card pretty as well. I think this would make a perfect Baptism card for both boy & girl. 

Colours are Kraft, Bashful Blue, Blush Blossom & Very Vanilla. 

High Tea Birthday Invites

My beautiful niece Marina is turning 30 next month & is having High Tea & a Lolly Buffet. She came up for Teya's Birthday so we made the time to design her invites & made matching lolly labels, cake toppers etc, It will look amazing & I will be sure to take a pic so you can see.
We got the idea for the invite layout from a lovely card Teya recieved for her Birthday made by my wonderful & very creative friend Louise. The sweet shop awning idea we saw on Splitcoast, a gorgeous card I emailed to Marina but it has no watermark, the stamp set used on that one was "Crazy for Cupcakes".
We used an image from "Fun & Fast notes", Your Invited is from "Cheer & Wishes". Candy Lane DSP, with Riding Hood Red, Pirouette Pink, Close to Cocoa & Very Vanilla CS.

Birthday Invites

Teya & I designed & made her invites together, we are both really happy with them & they didn't take long at all. Colours are Regal Rose & Whisper White for the Girls & Taken With Teal & Whisper White for the boys. "Happy Moments" SAB set sure has proved versatile! We dazzled with diamonds & (2way glue pen) to highlight the cake & present & coloured with Markers. .

Fifth ave Floral 50th invites

My wonderful SIL Helen turns 50th next month & this is what I have come up with for her invites -I thought I'd show you the in progress pic here. Helen loves the Rose from "Fifth ave Floral" & wanted red, so I went with Riding Hood Red, Chocolate Chip & Kiwi Kiss (Urban Oasis DSP) with Vanilla. You're invited is from "Cheer & Wishes" stamp set -I use this set alot!, the leaves are from "Flower Fancy" & 1/2 pearls from the Pretties kit. I just need to stamp the envelopes & off they go! Next I'll be working on the whole Wedding stationary package & I'm thinking "Fifth Ave Floral".

DP Thankyou cards

Windsor Knot DS paper for male 21st Thankyou's that will hold a photo cropped -for my nephew, & Bella Bleu DS paper for Prayer cards. A great way to showcase double sided DS papers.
The Bella Design was ordered un-assembled, the quote is from "Echoes of Kindness" & matching envelopes had a flower stamped & watercoloured, they turned out beautiful.

Just Surfing 21st Birthday Invites

Ok I'm not going to be modest on this post as I am extremely happy with these invites. My nephew turns 21 next month (means a trip back to Sydney so contact me if you would like to catch up or attend a get together). Steven loves the surf & is the youngest of 4 so he's up as well as the Surf! for the Big 21 -get it, clever don't you think? I made them in a couple of hours which was quite an accomplishment as I normally take my time when designing invites but this one was a breeze & the first idea that came to mind.
Steven always shows his appreciation of anything by just saying that's OK (his good) but this time I got "they're great" so I'm really happy!
Supplies;
Just Surfing stamp set
Pacific Point, Baja Breeze, Sahara Sand, Whisper White & Basic Black CS
Tab Punch, Silver Brads but retired eyelets on most (they went better with the nautical theme)
Pacific Point Striped Ribbon , Hemp Twine, Dimensionals, Snail & Paper snips.

Wow! When I got this invite in the mail I looked at it for ages & admired all the work that went into it.
Sue is a wonderful & talented fellow stamper & it shows!

Sue chose colours of papers & inks that co-ordinate with Outlaw DS papers, the cowboy is a stamp is from stampworld -Sue was stamping long before Stampin' Up! was in Oz & has the most amazing collection which now includes alot of SU!
SU sets used are "Please Come", "Starstruck" & "Bronco" wheel, she also used the small Star & cnr rounder punch's. I'm sure all who recieve this invite will be amazed.
