Thanks for all your lovely comments about the brides maid dresses. I'm so glad I have finally made a decision.
Had a busy weekend with work, a beach trip and a 21st birthday. The beach was fantastic! Jason and I went up to the Sunshine Coast. Melly my brother Alvin's fiancee had a small surprise lunch for his birthday (a belated one we already celebrated his bday). It was lovely hanging out and having a BBQ. We hung out at the beach afterwards and I attempted to learn how to surf. Not good but then it wasn't a good day to learn. Waves were too choppy. We hung out more then went for Gelato which is so good. The 21st at night we were just too tired to stay for long.
So many wedding things to do. At the moment I'm figuring out wedding invitations. I haven't quite decided if we are going to do print them or have more of a DIY look. If it's DIY I would love for them to look like the Cristina Re ones.
I bought the long envelope and the window envelope and I'm going to play around with it and see if it works or looks dodgy.
Here are a few examples with how these envelopes can be used.
I was going to use this idea but for the invites (this looks like a thank you card) and have a few pages inside with the wedding details.
This is really the colour theme. White and silver. But I've added some pastel shades with the brides maid and some of the other decos will have soft colour.
I bought the silver paper. So I will play around with it soon.
The hearts are raised silver foil. It's pretty and I was thinking about this paper too.
I wanted to add this for a burst of colour. The envelopes great. And the more I see it the more I'm thinking about using them for the invites.
I just love this. These cards are gorgeous and I wish I could use them for something =)
This is one of my projects for the week. Figure out wedding invitations and other stationery. I think it will be fun.

I've always wanted to buy pretty cards and collect them. 'cos sometimes they're soooo lovely, they seem almost too precious to be used! haha. Glad you had a wonderful weekend, love. Congrats on your feature in Diamonds in the Rough! :)) Totally well-deserved.
Saw this on a truly fantastic tumblr site and thought of you instantly!

This is probably the least helpful comment I could ever make, but I like any invitation that's shiny and has texture. So, for my fascination's sake, it would be the raised foil hearts. However, I like the idea of the pages inside--it seems more elegant and less like a birthday card. :)
Love the color choices, by the way. :)
i'm flying you here when i get married. every week so you can help me plan my wedding because you are so creative and have the BEST ideas! ;)
