A couple at my church, who each lost their spouses about five years ago, started dating and were married about two weeks ago. From engagement to wedding it was ten weeks. I was brought in at about week eight! I made 100 of these invitations in about one week!
The poinsettia is made from the maple leaf die cut. Each flower uses 3 cherry cobbler leaves and 1 old olive leaf. I cut each leaf into 3 sections, broke the paper down with a pair of scissors, so the pedals would curl. I assembled the leaves on a 3/4" circle and attached with Tombo. Once everything was dry, I sponged the edges with early espresso and spritzed with Shimmer Paint mixed with rubbing alcohol.
Thanks for looking!

Thanks everyone! They were mailed in regular U.S. postal mail. We double enveloped (the inner envelope was lined). The postage was whatever it costs for mailing wedding invitations.
