Sunday Scrapping - Wedding Stationery

Hi Everyone - Lowri here.  We have been taking a well earned break after all the Christmas craziness here at Artfull Crafts.

Everyone is relaxing a little and enjoying the school/summer holidays but I thought I would share a couple of projects I created as part of my Pink Paislee Design Team Application (did you see I was awarded a Guest Designer Spot - I am SO THRILLED!!) 

I created these for my Sister's fabulous wedding party here in New Zealand. She was married earlier this year in the UK but seeing I my brother and I were unable to go - we did it all again just before Christmas - but just the reception part without the wedding. It was SO much fun!

Placecards

To create each card I cut two pieces of paper using Spellbinders, creased them in the middle and glued one on top of another. I printed names onto clear labels and added one of my rolled paper flowers (see below).

Candy Favors

I have made these many times before (I have a tutorial here if you would like to see how!) but they are so elegant and perfect for hiding a couple of after-dinner mints.

Confetti Bags

I collected all the paper scraps from the other items and punched butterflies using a small punch. I then punched the same shape from layers of baking paper to create confetti. (Note - 8 layers of baking paper at a time was perfect!)

Flowers

I also created some paper flowers for decoration using my favorite Tim Holtz die! Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of them after they were arranged as I was doing all the cooking for the reception and it was a little busy!

Here are a couple of pictures of what was an absolutely fabulous day with family and friends (and my three crazy children!)

Please post a comment with any questions
