I posted the other day the invite I had been working on for ella's first birthday party. So I thought I'd share the process of how I finished them up...
I started with this photo I took last weekend in my "kitchen" studio...
{my "kitchen" studio consists of a roll of white paper, my kitchen window and my external flash bouncing off the ceiling. super simple}
Added text in photoshop...
Had them printed at mpix.com... gathered the extra material {I ordered from HERE when I ordered her dress from HERE}, and my ever trusty Xyron 150...
I ripped strips of the fabric to approx. 1/2" and ran it thru my {X}...
{note: I used repositionable tape in the X}
Then, create a ruffle at the top & bottom of the printed invite...
Ran it through my sewing machine...
And that's it! A few strips of fabric and you have something completely unique!
