Prototype #1
Ok...So I mentioned previously that I have been "drafted" to make wedding invitations. Well, I kinda volunteered...lol. Anyway, I did some searching on splitcoast for some ideas. Then I put them all together in my crazy head, and started playing. Any "prototypes" I will show you are obviously not in the correct colors or perfect stage, but I just want to have basic ideas to share with my SIL. Today I wanted to show you my first rough draft. I LOVED this idea of a tri-fold when I saw something similar on splitcoast. I took 2 ideas and pulled them together for this one. So...please let me know your opinions, or ideas I could use to close the folds. I thought our a tied ribbon, but not sure how I want to do that yet. I did put a hole in this one, but being a rough draft, it is subject to change...lol. I also am looking for an embossing folder with swirls or flourishes to do on the flaps. If you know a specific name of one, please leave me a comment as to the name so I can start looking for it. THANKS!!!!

I think it's beautiful, and SIL will love it! Will it have a belly band for closure? Great job!!! Cuttlebug has some beautiful NEW embossing folders...good luck!
I think it is a beautiful shape and the trifold is a great idea!
Great start. I love the gate fold. Thanks for stopping by Asleep on the Couch and leaving a comment. I really enjoyed the GD spot with Belli.
I love this idea, and I think the belly band idea is a great one too. You could do a lot to embellish a belly band and it would be easy too. I don't know any specific names of embossing folders, but I do know there are some nice ones out there. Check at MHP and see what Jen has, I'll check mine and see what I have too.
