Wedding Invites & Giveaway {CLOSED}

 I made wedding invitations for a family member last month.  They are renewing their vows in August.  I made 150 invites, but they were simple and elegant, at least I think so. :) 
A special thanks to Norma from Pink Bling Crafter.  She went of her way in getting samples of the cardstock to the bride.  Thank you Norma!


Here's what I used:
Ok so let's have a little fun, the first person that gets closest to the amount spent, will get the following:

  • 24 sheets of Stampin' Up Eggplant cardstock
  • 24 sheets of Domtar Natural cardstock
  • 2 yds. of Celebrate It! sheer ribbon
  • 12 Prima Flowers
  • 1 Lace Background Stamp Set by Recollections
  • 1 pk of purple bling
You have only one guess.  Hint:  I used coupons whenever possible. :)
This giveaway is only open for my followers.  I will announce the winner on Tuesday, July 26th.
