After much consideration, I decided to buy my very own copy of Photoshop Elements. The program itself is very user-friendly, so even someone like me can figure it out. I knew I wanted to incorporate a floral motif to compliment our rustic, outdoor ceremony location. Purchasing a digital brush through Two Peas in a Bucket and fonts from dafont and scrapNfonts, the design ending up having a vintage appeal. It was exactly what I wanted.

I bought Luxe White cardstock through Broadway Paper and Antique Gold envelopes from My Gatsby. I know that cardstock from Broadway Paper is a little more expensive than from other sources, but they had the exact paper I was looking for, Waste Not Paper. Their Luxe White is a softer white, and the texture is too die for! Sam Flax in Atlanta provided the printing services. Once they were printed, I just rounded the corners, and, voila! they looked like this:

I’m really happy with how they turned out!
