Homemade Cards Are Magic

...even when the ink smears! This is a sample of the homemade bridal shower invitation I made for my cousin's fiance. It's taped up to our fridge collage in case you are trying to figure out what the heck is happening with the photo angle.

My mom, sister and I are co-hosting the shower to honor Alex and I got excited to make some homemade cards since I haven't done it in a while. I've been slowly amassing stamps, ink, adhesives, ribbon and blank cards. This was a fun little project.

I chose colors in the bride's palate and did it all by hand including writing out the message on the inside and addressing the envelopes. I took so much joy in creating something unique to honor a loved one. Can't wait for the party!
