Invitations (Vabila)

Hello everybody! How are you doing? I've been super busy lately - with crafting and with other things. That's why I haven't been very active online either. I want to share some news with you which will tell you what kept me busy. Sooooo...

First of all - I am getting married in a week! :D Woohoo! It's all happened so fast so I didn't have as much time to plan everything as I would normally want, but things are coming together now, so all is good. I still have some things to do, but I know I can do them. :)

Another big news is that I am moving to another country. I won't go into details about when, where etc., but I will tell you that it's soon. So looking at the apartment there, learning the language etc. are the things that keep me busy as well.

So, as you can imagine my crafty time has been very limited. I did however manage to make wedding invitations. Luckily it's a small wedding with only close relatives, so I didn't have to make THAT many. ;) I kept the design the same, but I did change some flowers, papers etc. for some of them. Want to see the pictures? Here you go...


And another one with the different big flower


All the invitations were made with Craft and you papers. Most of the flowers I used are from I am roses, but on some invitations I used flowers from other brands as well. I made the butterflies myself with modge molds and white modge melts. Doilies and lace came from my stash. The sentiment is in slovenian and it means "invitation". It's a clear stamp from Mavelu. I embossed it with gold embossing powder from Ranger.




I made these also as an inspiration for the current challenge at The sketchy challenges. Be sure to check the challenge out if you want to have a chance to win some crafty goodies.

So much from me today.

Have a beautiful day! xx

I'd like to enter my project to the following challenges:
Craft-alnica: Rože
I am roses: Anything goes
Craftyhazelnut's patterned paper challenge: Use patterned paper
Simon says stamp (Wednesday challenge): Anything goes
Word art Wednesday: Anything goes
AnMa creatief: Butterflies
Sugar Pea designs: Mix it up challenge 43 (my inspiration was the flower)
As you like it: Flora or fauna (flora for me - I love using flowers on projects; I think they add that special finishing touch and make the whole project more elegant)

  4. Hello! Congratulations! You have really been busy. I know, getting married is a big deal, then moving!! those are 2 big projects. Make sure you stay in contact with "real" people to learn better than just in school. And you made your own invitations! they are stunning. Great idea about the flowers, less is more.

    Thank you so much for linking it in our blog!
