Brad and Lauren's Wedding Invitations

Lauren and Brad wanted their wedding to be unique,
so they  decided to go with a contemporary theme.

The distressed dots were used through out the wedding stationary
using the Dotted background stamp (retired) from Stampin' Up!
To achive the look we wanted we needed to cut our Dotted background stamp
into different sizes for our invitations, programs and guest book cards.



The Dotted accent on each of the cards were either
embossed with clear embossing powder on Basic Black cardstock
or stampted with Classic Basic Black Stampin' Up! ink on Very Vanilla Cardstock.

These were the invitations to Brad and Laurens reheasrsal dinner
using a Movie Night theme.   Even though I used a few non-Stampin' Up!
products to make these reheasrsal invitations,
the basic card was Basic Gray, Basic Black and Real Red Stampin' Up! Cardstock.

is getting married, use the best products for the job
