In return, she not only gave me more things than I will know what to do with, she introduced to me to a whole new world of blending! I made this cute little guy just because I really like frogs. I had 10 minutes to cut, edge, blend and glue before I HAD to run out the door in a whirlwinds of hugs, thank yous and paper, to get pick up hubby from work! Thank you for SUCH a wonderful day Lynn! (And thanks for all the new "toys" to play with!)

Cream, Shimmer and Brown Wedding Invitations - Response Cards

Hi all! My friend Jill used this cute tag idea on her daughter's response cards I fell IN LOVE!! So, I used them here. To tie them into the invitations, since I couldn't make them inside a sleeve as well, I used a lighter colored paper to make the envelopes to represent the shimmer paper, the response card is the same paper as the invitation and the shimmery brown ribbon not only represents the brown bow on the invitation, but, also the glitter of the monograms.

Materials Used:

• Cream paper
• Ivory paper
• Shimmer ribbon
