Hi! I am Christina Crawford and I have been a Stampin' Up demonstrator for 12 years. And this video title is How to create wedding invitations on a budget.
Wedding invitations can be very expensive and this is the time where you really want to watch because this is a great thing to do. Create your own invitations and announcements, Save the Day Cards, favors and thank you notes. Very easy, there’s a multitude of ideas out there. I'm just going to give you several of them and I really hope it helps and get you started.
In these video clips, you’re going to see everything from wedding announcements, Save the Day Cards which are very popular since everybody is on such a busy schedule then it’s great to have some fun favors something that’s so unique, something that everybody just enjoys when they sit down at the reception or at the bridal shower even and they get to take something really fun home.
Also thank you notes are very much appreciated and they’re expected too. I have some ideas for some really great thank you notes that don’t take a lot of time but are so beautiful and because they are hand created. The person who receives your thank you notes are going to think that she spent so much time and love that you spent the time on them.
Some tools that you’ll need to begin making and stamping your own cards and favors are a paper cutter, some card stock, some stamps and embellishments, some inputs ago along with that embellishments—I mean ribbon and grommets, islets and brads glitter to just so have so much fun with all those things making personalized.
You also need some adhesives; different kinds, some are temporary and some are permanent. If you really need to get both of those, you’ll use them like—trust me you will. And then some punches, there’s so may out there just to give it a nice angle cut so you don’t have to free cut everything. I'm going to show you how to use the Crop-A-Dile which is a fabulous tool for all kinds of paper crafts then I'm going to show you how to use that too. Having fun doing all these projects does require some tools. So make sure that when you watch the video clips, you just pay attention to those because you’ll need those that will really help you out and save you some time.
Let me tell you a little bit more about me. I know that you’ve known because I say it in a lot of clips that I've been Stamping for 12 years and I've had a lot of fun showing other people how to use stamps and paper crafts to create their own favors, wedding announcements, birth announcements, all kinds of invitations to my daughter. My oldest daughter recently graduated in high school and we did all of her graduation announcements. Instead of paying big bucks for those, I save hundreds of dollars because I made them myself. We had fun doing it together too so not only to save money but you do have fu in it and you could pull some friends together, some family, you’ll have a great time. Those are going to be the things that you’ll remember especially on this special occasion like a wedding. So enjoy these video clips, I think you’ll have fun. I did!
Thank you!
