A few days ago, the son of a gal I work with told his mom that he and his fiancee wanted a quiet wedding over the holidays with only close family invited - and a $1000 budget. I would have gone into an immediate "Are you crazy?" mode. Not this gal - in 48 hours she had everything ordered and organized from the church to the dress to the invites - that's where I came in. She wanted 12 simple invites with a holiday look that involved snowflakes and could go regular mail. And I had a 24 hour deadline! Snowflakes, sparkle, silver embossing and these invites were good to go. Whew - now back to my regularly scheduled Christmas preparations!
The Paper Players are having a CAS snowflake challenge this week!
OMG this is absolutely gorgeous! I know she must have LOVED them. Just beautiful Linda.
