Another Wedding Invite

-
This is another example of a wedding invitation for my sister to try and give her some ideas.  It very simple I used work to print the words and the heart swirl onto cream card. Then I used my scoring board to fold the card and a nestability to cut the aperture. For a bit of colour I did faux stitching around the aperture using my pink sakura gel pen.  The actual insert was again done in word, I can print 3 to an A4 sheet, the image is a digi image from Mo's Digital Pencil I have left it uncoloured as I wanted a simple clean look.  I used a text box in word to add some colour to the inside and finished with a ribbon tied through a hole in the top so that the invite can be slipped from the sleeve easily.  Its been designed to fit in a DL envelope, hopefully my sister will make a decision on what she wants and I can get on making them - must be honest I do like this design.


This is being entered into the following challenges


Thanks for looking

No Cards But A Promarker Storage Project!

Sorry not a card but I have been working on this, hopefully some cards soon. Anyone who know me knows I am a very organised crafter My promarkers have been driving me mad as they were in a number of different containers and I never seem to pick up the right container, so I decided I needed to sort it This is a CD storage box from Tescos it comes with 100 sleeves to put CD in You can find it HERE  but there are many others out there Being sad I had some Pro markers in my handbag so was able to try them in the shop for size! Each sleeve holds seven promakers and each section comfortable hold 10 sleeves or eleven with a little bit of a squeeze As I said I like things very organised or as my DH says OCD! I used some adhesive labels in my Craft Robo and cut out the little circles this way they were still attached to the backing sheet I could colour them and then peel them off with my poky tool and stick to the ends of the pens I also have put a coloured circle on the bar of ...

Promarker Storage Update

As some of you know I tend to be a little bit of an OCD crafter - I like everything to have a place and when I have finished using it that is where it goes. Now when I first started collecting Promarkers I used a travel CD case to transport them and it has worked really well you can see the original  HERE . I then also started to collect some flexi markers and the promarkers brought out some limited edition promarkers so I decided I needed them!        This meant my storage box was no longer large enough so I started to look at ways to improve it I brought a slightly larger box from E-Bay then set to improving the insides I realised if I made some boxes for the pens I could store more in a row, than using the CD sleeves. So using an A4 piece of paper I scored out a box with two dividers so the pens do not fall over (I did warn you I was OCD)  This is the A4 piece of card with the score lines dotted and the solid lines are...
