Round Here: Forever & Always | Simon Says Stamp October Card Kit

Hey everyone!!

Today I have a project that I created with the October Simon Says Stamp card kit.

As soon as I saw the kit, I immediately thought the colours were perfect for a wedding themed card or invitation. I decided to go with an invitation since I had a tri-fold notecard that I had been wanting to use.

Forever & Always

This is the invitation opened to show the contents inside. The 'Forever & Always' is a paper band that I created to wrap around the invitation and hold it closed. The pocket on the right holds the reply card and the envelope. The left side is the invitation printed on vellum and layered on paper that I stamped using the stamp set that comes with the kit.

This is the invitation closed, with the band wrapped around it. I just measured how wide it would need to be, scored the sides and then adhered it at the back.

Supplies

InLinkz.com

And here is a quick video I did to show in a little more detail how I put the invitation together.

Thanks so much for stopping by today -

Please let me know if you have any questions about this project.
