Butterflies seem to be the flavour of the season and as I have a rather large collection of rubber stamps I thought I would use one on the new wedding invitations. The background paper I handpainted with acrylics then scanned & altered to create/add texture to keep the design consistant on each card. The butterfly has been embossed on the same paper as the background - I've used Blonde Moments embossing powder.
The cones are made up as a combined place setting and wedding favour. The cones are big enough to hold 3/4 sugared almonds or any other small object. I have placed a matching bag charm in this cone which is something a little bit different than chocolates (not that there's anything wrong with chocolates)

I love butterflies and funnily I have used them as well this week, great minds. Love the colours of the invites
I don't know why but Summer insects really cheer me up, butterflies, dragonflies, ladybirds and bummble bees. Guests will love receiving your invites!
They are gorgeous Anita - very summery in subject and colour (love the colour choice by the way!).
There is something about a butterfly that is so beautiful and works so well in all crafts . Your invites are lovely and the cones are a fab idea as a favour.
They're lovely and I love the colour scheme you've used!
