Casual Summer Wedding Stationery w/ Pink Paislee

Hi Everyone
Hope you have had a wonderful few days over Christmas. We had a very casual family wedding last week and I put together a few fun items for decoration.

Placecards
To create each card I cut two pieces of paper using Spellbinders, creased them in the middle and glued one on top of another. I printed names onto clear labels and added one of my rolled paper flowers (see below).


Candy Favors
I have made these many times before (I have a tutorial here if you would like to see how!) but they are so elegant and perfect for hiding a couple of after-dinner mints.

Confetti Bags

I collected all the paper scraps from the other items and punched butterflies using a small punch. I then punched the same shape from layers of baking paper to create confetti. (Note – 8 layers of baking paper at a time was perfect!)

Flowers
I also created some paper flowers for decoration. Unfortunately I don’t have any pictures of them after they were arranged as I was doing all the cooking for the reception and it was a little busy!
Here are a couple of pictures of what was an absolutely fabulous day!
Please post a comment with any questions
