Confirmation Invitations

Good Morning!

Today I'll show you some Confirmation Invitations my boss ordered for her daughters confirmation.

As my daughter, her daughter loves music, so I thought the invitations should have a musical theme.

So I made 40 guitar-cards - 20 in green and 20 in purple :)

Stamps: North Star Stamps

Papers: Magnolia & Bazzill

Embellishments: Wild Orchid Crafts

Template: Made by myself

 

 

Hope you enjoyed visiting me today :)
