Precious Little Things


I'd have to the say that this is one of the many perks of my career: The freedom, the ability to think outside the box and where creativity has no bounds. I had a so much fun designing the invitations for my Godson Jaiden's Blessing Ceremony.

Here's what I used:
3 3/4 x 8 7/8 stock paper
7/8 double faced sating blue ribbon
Tissue Paper
Color ink
Translucent Paper 8 x 11.5
Glue Gun

I started out by creating little white tee shirts out of the tissue paper. Once done, I affixed a little pearl-like decals for buttons.


I wrapped the ribbon around the stock card. I then placed the baby tees on the pre-printed stock card. I took the pre-folded paper and affixed it to the stock card and then sealed it with additional ribbon.

When I presented the invites to Jaiden's mother. She was very happy with the keepsakes. A special thank you to my big sister Joni, who by the way ROCKED as my hand model!

Take this idea and add your own to it.

Happy Planning!
