Vintage Lingerie Shower Invitation
Vintage Lingerie Invitations
Love to use vintage images on invitations These invitations have been made with black cardstock, some patterned scrapbook and card crafting papers and some sexy vintage images.
Make the card
- Take some black card stock to make the cards themselves. These can be o bunch of old cards with no verses on the inside that you can pick up from 2nd hand stores and op shops. Or you can by some cheap craft card from a art or department store, cut them down to any size you like and fold them in half.
Step 1
Cut a white rectangular matt piece of card and stick it to the card on a slight angle.
Buy some cheap scrapbook paper from your dept store or art shop. You will find cheaper supplies at a dept store or even on Ebay than you will at a scrapbook store but the boutique store papers have a greater variety in design. Cut a piece slightly smaller than the white matt card and stick it to the front, centering it.
Step 2
Take your image, cut around it and adhere it on to the front
of your card.
A good source of printable images just like these is flickr. I have
found a couple here that might suit.

Step 4
Print the text "Lingerie Shower for (Guest of Honors name)" in a funky font then cut the words out separately and attach to the card.
Step 5
You can type up all the pertinent details on regular paper and stick it to the inside of the card to save you lots of time.
