Vintage Country Wedding Lingerie Shower Invitation Prototypes

Hey guys! I hope you all are having a fabulous weekend! Mom and I went to a crop in Red Bay, AL. We had a blast! I think I did a lot more socializing than scrapbooking, but hey, I had fun! Tee hee! I made a whopping 3 cards during the 2 day crop! A good friend of mine, Tara, has asked me to create some invitations for her. She is hosting a lingerie shower for a friend. The wedding, from what I understand, is going to be a vintage country wedding. The couple will be getting married in front of an old barn and Tara was thinking she might like to incorporate that theme into the lingerie shower invitations. I told her I would create a few different prototypes for her to choose from. Here is what I came up with:
 
Lingerie Shower Card #1
 
Supplies Used
Cardstock: Core'dinations, The Paper Studio
Patterned Paper: Die Cuts With A View
Rhinestones: The Paper Studio
Twine: My Craft Spot
Electronic Cutter: Cricut Expression (Provo Craft)
Cartridges Used: Create A Critter, Pretty Pennants, Joys of the Season, Tie The Knot, Forever Young
Software: Cricut Gypsy (Provo Craft)
Adhesive: AdTech, Tombow, Provo Craft
 
This one is a shaped card in the shape of a barn. I wanted to create an open door look on the front and added a dressform with a corset on it.
 To make the 'door', I used the Pretty Pennants Cartridge. The curtains at the top are a cut that was for the top of a pennant. Then the doors are a pennant that I cut in half lengthwise and added to the door frame.
 Lingerie Shower Card #2
 
Supplies Used
Cardstock: Core'dinations, The Paper Studio
Glitter Glue: Stickles (Ranger Industries)
Rhinestones: The Paper Studio
Electronic Cutter: Cricut Expression (Provo Craft)
Cartridges Used: Gypsy Wanderings, Yee Haw, Forever Young, Tie The Knot, Slumber Party
Software: Cricut Gypsy (Provo Craft)
Embossing Machine: Cuttlebug (Provo Craft)
Embossing Folder: Large Dots (The Paper Studio)
Adhesive: AdTech, Helmar, Tombow
 
For this one, I added a barn in the background. I then made a 'clothesline' of sorts strung between two trees. On the line, lingerie is hanging. And I added a sentiment.

 Lingerie Shower Card #3
 
Supplies Used
Cardstock: Core'dinations, The Paper Studio
Patterned Paper: Teresa Collins
Rhinestones: The Paper Studio
Ribbon: Offray
Twine: My Craft Spot
Electronic Cutter: Cricut Expression (Provo Craft)
Cartridges Used: Tie The Knot, Forever Young, Home Decor, Stretch Your Imagination
Software: Cricut Gypsy (Provo Craft)
Adhesive: AdTech, Tombow, Provo Craft
 
For this one, I was going for a lingerie boutique look. This one was my favorite to make!



Also, I thought I would share the dress I made this morning. This is Mollie's gown for the Yorkie Talk Valentine's Day Ball.
And here are the girls ready for the ball! This year the ball's theme is 'a winter wonderland.'

Oh my! She scrapped!!!

Hey guys! Long time, no see! I hope you all are doing fabulous! I have been so busy and so many things have changed since I blogged last. I really got into my sewing and my Etsy shop that I hadn't scrapped in months. I missed it terribly, but just could not find the time to scrap and sew. AND we moved!!! We finally made it back home to Alabama! We moved around the first of December and are totally loving it. Mom and I are sharing one big craft room now and it is fabulous! It's sooo good to be near family again! I just am so thankful!
 
Well, last night, Mom and I went to a crop! Whoo hoo! We had such a wonderful time and met lots of nice ladies. It felt kind of weird to scrap. I need to get back in the groove. We are going to another crop this coming weekend, so maybe I'll get the feel for scrapping again. I only made 3 cards last night, but I thought I would share them with you guys.
