DIY: christmas invites!

sorry i've been m.i.a. is anyone else going a little nuts getting ready for the holidays?

not only do i have bunches of presents to finish putting together/wrapping but we are heading south to be with the families in just 5 days!!! yikes.

anyway...in the midst of all of this madness i got to help out with some christmas party invitations for the mister's work.

if you are planning a christmas or new years party they are simple, pretty and festive.

what you'll need:

1. fun christmas fabrics (found at joann's on sale for 1.99/yd)

2. fabric glue

3. card stock

4. yarn

5. a printer

6. paper cutter

the steps are easy:

-pick a font that you like

-print the invites on the card stock

-cut them with the paper cutter

-glue them to the fabric with the fabric glue

and your done!

i was hoping to stitch them with my sewing machine but it malfunctioned. i think it would add a lovely touch if you had the time and a proper sewing machine!

i owe you a wedding photo! i'll have that tomorrow

and soon i'll be sharing photos from the photo shoot deb and i did
