Hello everyone!
Today I wanna share some birthday party invites I made a couple weeks ago for Anna's 18th Birthday party!! Yeah...18, I'm still in denial! LOL
Anyhow, I had the 12x12 Primas "Nature's Garden" paper collection I wanted to use. I LOVED side A of the collection. Side B was a little too purple and gray for me, although the images were exquisite! :)
Thanks Jodie Lee for the awesome design! It's a favorite for sure!! So I used this collection for the 12 invites and also used -3- 12x12 sheets I punched a border design on them for the cake and present table
....it was so pretty!

I recycled 4 glass Starbucks bottles. I saved about 8 of them, but used 4 and they worked great for small flower arrangements on the cake table!
Let me apologize that I don't have the video tutorial for these, I really wish I could have had one but this was during the time when I had no internet and had 2 laptops in the shop and I was stressed. When I finally had some connection I did a search on Pinterest and found an awesome picture of a card that totally inspired me!!! AHHH, you guys, this lady is so talented, her name is Anne and her blog is mesmerizing!

Here's the invites:
I made pink ones to give out to the girls and green ones for the boys...and 1 of the green ones was for me...
I decided to make pockets for tags that had the party info on it...
They slip right out...
You flip it over and the info is on the other side...
I almost didn't use the butterflies!!! I'm glad I did though!
I think they totally finish off the invites!
3 layers!!!! I LOVE!!
A little butterfly in the corner so it's not too plain....I think it works!:)
The bottles!! I used light green burlap to stamp a swirl on it
....ah, so sweet!
A butterfly I painted white with gesso and tied on the
neck with some cool hemp cord!
There's a bottle behind the basket...I bought it at Joann's and did a white wash on it to shabby it up, then wrapped some gathered streamer paper with lace and added a burlap flower I made! This paper looked great on the table and fit the little decor I had...just so shabby!
