An Invitation Reject:

Ok, so the title's lacking tact, but, that's exactly what this card is. My lovely sister asked me to help her with some wedding invite idea's - which of course I'm honoured to help her with. I wanted to keep things basic though as my sister has to make HEAPS of the chosen invites and is very busy with 2 x part time jobs and Uni.

I was requested to use certain colours, and this is one of the cards I came up with. Although I think it's really pretty, it is one of the cards that wasn't chosen as a finalist for Bron's wedding invites...which is another reason I can post it here for you all to look at. I hope you all like it.

Supplies:
* Happy Occasions (retired) and So Swirly SA Stamp Sets.
* Perfect Plum, Metallic (gold) and Very Vanilla Cardstock.
* Gold Encore Pad & Gold Embossing Powder.
* 1/16" Corner Punch (I tell you what, I can't wait until the new Summer Mini Comes out with regards to the scalloping I had to do laboriously here) and Crop-A-Dile.
