Afternoon all - it seems a little while since I have posted, but that's because I am back to work and have been busy wedding planning and trying to get ahead with my wedding stationery.
There are lot's of challenges running at the moment entitled "A New Beginning" and as I will be getting married at the end of March and it will be the start of married life, I thought I would enter my wedding invitation into those challenges.
It's a pretty simple design, with stamped wording and embossing and a little floral detail as I thought it best to keep it as simple as possible as there is so much to make! I will feature the rest of the stationery once produced!
I am entering this into:
