I'm planning a half-destination wedding on the beautiful island of Oahu - imagine a plethora of movies, art and games; savory Hawaiian food; blended Chinese and Japanese cultural details; lush, fragrant tropical flowers and all the air conditioning a NorCal native could want! And once I marry the love of my life, we'll come back to the 'mainland' to party it up all over again in my hometown of Salinas, the salad-bowl capital of the world!

Invitation Wedding Card

May 6th, 2011 @ 3:06 pm by Mrs. Sewing

One of the best wedding cards we received was actually made from our own invitation (hence why I would think it was the best? How narcissistic).

But really, I think it was a really clever way of re-purposing our invite!

And since I just so happen to have my cousin’s wedding to attend, I thought I’d do something similar with her invitation.

Peacock theme!

It was kind of scary how much fun it was to make. Maybe I like weddings more than I’d like to admit. Or maybe it’s just the pretty crafts. Hard to tell. Though I don’t think I should go into business as a peacock-hairstylist.

I added the embossed monogram that was on the back of the invite to the inside of my card.

Anyway, I’m pretty much going to do this invite-to-wedding-card idea for every future wedding I get to attend. I love the concept just that much! And hopefully the recipients do as well!

Marrieds, did you have a favorite wedding card?

I cut up my engagment, shower, bachelorette & wedding cards and used them in my wedding scrapbook. It was a good way to re-use them because they had cute pictures, ribbons, and quotes. I like how you gave her invitation a new life though!
