invitation

1. Using a graphics program or Microsoft Word, type out your invitation text in a serif font (we used adobe Garamond). To add a fun touch, we used all lower case type and italicized some of the lines. We also used brown for our ink color.

2. Set your "page" to be 4x9 and center your text. This will allow you to print two invitations per 8.5x11 sheet. Print out your invitations and cut to size.

3. Cut the scallop card in half and adhere to the top left side of the invitation using mono adhesive. Cut a circle sticker in half and place centered on the scallop card.

4. Using a 1/8" hole punch, make hole through the sticker and card, slightly off center, for the snap. Place white snap through the hole and set in place with the setting tool and rubber mallet.

5. Adhere the completed invitation to the center of the envelopment. Fold in flaps and close with a circle seal. Address the front using a fine tip brown marker.

floral place card

1. Score scallop card by placing the ruler in the middle of the card and creating a score with the tip of the bone folder.

2. Fold note card in half, smoothing the fold with the flat side of the bone folder.

3. Keeping the card folded, place half of the 1.25" circle sticker to the center to card. Smooth down and then fold the other half of the sticker over the fold.

4. Add your guest's name to the top of the scallop card with a fine tip brown marker.

frosted treat boxes

1. Adhere the rectangle seal to front center of box. Wrap 20" of jute around box once and tie off with a knot in the front just a little off center of the rectangle.

2. Using the large circle punch, cut out a circle from papaya cardstock. If you don't have a large punch, you can also trace a small round object and cut out by hand.

3. Next, using the 1/8" hole punch, punch a hole about 1/4" in from the edge of the larger circle. Slide one of the ends of jute through the hole and tie the tag into the jute. Trim the ends to about 1" if desired.
