Today's sketch is fantastic. I had a friend ask me to make five wedding cards for her, and she wanted cream color cards. Yesterday I was browsing my local craft store in the bridal section, and I came across these invites on clearance. The envelopes are included. The quality of the paper is great. I started by making a slit on the top of the base piece and shirred two pieces of ribbon through the slits. Added a piece of cardstock under the ribbon. Added a bow at the bottom. I then used a die for sentiment. Being a larger card, it looked off balanced so I added the corner die with the added pearls. This card does measure 8x51/2. tfl
