An exciting holiday in the life of every girl, of course, is a wedding. Each one tries to decorate this day in a special way, so that everything blends with each other and at the same time does not strike a sharp eye. In most wedding events, the bride herself takes on all the chores. It is always a pleasure to come to any celebration and hold it in a warm family atmosphere, to receive a lot of positive impressions from the holiday.
Not every couple of newlyweds currently rolls huge solemn feasts. Many simply prefer to spend this day exclusively with close people who are close to their hearts and souls. Accordingly, each bride, regardless of the number of invited people, should stock up on wedding invitations. And even better if she makes them herself. Currently, a very popular technique for this kind of product is scrapbooking. Any materials for creativity can be purchased in stores or needlework departments. Here, for example, if the newlyweds invited six or seven people or families to the wedding, each girl can create such wedding invitations on her own.
So, consider a detailed master class on making six invitations using the scrapbooking technique. What materials do we need for this:
• Three sheets of watercolor paper in A4 format;
• Two sheets of thick paper with white mother-of-pearl, A4 format;
• Cutting down a light pink butterfly six pieces;
• Cutting green leaves 12 pieces;
• About a meter of ribbons of a narrow white organza and peach organza 10 mm wide, about 1.5-2 meters of a pink satin ribbon 0.5 cm wide;
• Small peach-colored half beads with a diameter of 3 mm;
• Two stamps: one “Invitation” and “Wedding rings”, pink ink pad;
• Paper roses with a diameter of about 1.5 cm peach-pink;
• Thread with a needle, glue stick, double-sided tape, ruler, pencil, scissors, elastic.
