What a difference a stamp makes!

 
130 invitations are ready to bring a little smile to a lot of people who will be invited to celebrate the beautiful Isabella Beckwith's 15th Birthday party at her "Quinceanera".

 
Her taste is simple and delicate.  During our initial meeting together we created a design for her invitation that reflected her style and combining the colors she selected for her party. 
The flowers are "Just Blooms" from Close to My Heart, colored by several showers of Tattered Angels, Glimmer Mist in "Tutti Frutti" and "Sunkissed Peach" colors.  Believe it or not, the center of the flower is a FLORAL ARRANGEMENT PEBBLE.  :)  Long gone are the days for traditional crafting.  
I love implementing non-traditional items to my designs.  
Typically I keep a sample of the invitations I create for clients.  In this case, I wanted to add a little more flair  to create more "Wow" factor.  The stamp is by CTMH named "Adoring Corners" .  I stamped with "Versa Mark" and used Gold Embossing Powder.  Click on the name of the product used to see more details and to order directly from my website. 
 
Ces't Voila!!!

Cinderella Quinceanera

A couple of weeks ago, I received a call from a very nice mother planning a party for her daughter. Her daughter will be 15 years old an will be in less than 8 weeks away. Well... we all know that you MUST send your invites 6 weeks in advance to give your guest to RSVP and to make plans accordingly. She needed the invites in one week!!!! YIKES!!!!
Of course I had a back up plan for her. I sent her to Michael's with her handy dandy 40% off coupon to purchase pre-made invitations. Her husband formatted the wording and printed them in their home computer and since the theme is Cinderella she changed the ribbon from silver to a pale blue to match the colors for the party.
She then, brought me all the invitations and rsvp cards for a little MAGIC... I embossed a Cinderella shoe in liquid silver and place a swarosvki blue crystal on every shoe. It made the invitation and card, look delicate and expensive. I tell YA!... A SHOE CAN REALLY MAKE A DIFFERNCE. hee hee...
Invitations were done in three days and they are in the mail as we speak. There is a solution for every party situation out there, you just got to talk to the right people.
Can't wait to see pictures of her special day. Now to start with the "Thank You" notes...
