Make Christmas Invitations with Scrapbook Products
Scrapbooking is a fast growing hobby, there is a whole other world out there where paper, scissors and glue rule. Nearly all of the supplies that you will find in a scrapbook store can be used to create fabulous invitations as the designs are beautiful. You can see that with this fine example of a hand made Christmas Party Invitation.
The scrapbook papers that you will find are often part of a 4 or more set of carefully coordinated patterns, designed to compliment each other which will create more options and room for creativity when you come to make your holiday invites. In addition to that you there are often matching embellishments ranging from the very simple two pronged brad to other elaborate decorations.
I will say that while the papers are often cheaper than invitation stores they can still be a little pricey. Check out the sales and out of season stock for great bargins. I like to pick up cheap stuff on ebay.
This
invitation shows you what you can do with scrapbooking supplies. While it
looks very elaborate the base of the card is simply well chosen papers and some
cutting. Some punches have been used to cut the snowflakes. Ribbon and
brads have also been used. The major feature of this Christmas invitation is the
candy cane. The candy cane is one of a set of cookie cutters that were
picked up on sale at a homewares store. It has been tied to the card with
regular twine.
