These elegant invitations use Real Pressed Mini Rosebuds.

You will need (for the cream card)

  • Pressed Flowers - Mini Red Rosebuds
  • A4 Gold pearl card
  • White/Gold Swirl Angel Hair
  • Tall Textured Cream Card
  • A4 Textured Cream Card
  • Double Sided Tape Runner or Double sided tape
  • PVA Craft glue
  • Your Printer
  • Scissors or Paper Trimmer

Cut out the following

  • A piece of cream card 4cm x 8cm
  • A piece of Gold Pearlescent Card 4.5cm x 8.5cm
  • A piece of White/Gold Swirl Angel Hair 6.5cm x 10.5cm

Print your Tall Card Blank using the Wedding Crafter Template. We have used Adinekirnberg, available Here.

Using Double Sided Tape or an Adhesive Tape Pen stick the cream rectangle onto the gold rectangle, leaving an even border all round. Next stick the gold card to the middle of the angel hair. Now attach adhesive to the back of the angel hair, only where it will be covered by the card rectangle. Attach the layers to the Tall card blank ensuring the gaps at the side and Top are of equal size.

Using PVA Craft glue dab small amounts of adhesive over the back of a pressed rose (tweezers are very useful for handling the flowers as they are delicate). Place in the middle of the cream card layers and put to one side to dry.

You can now prepare and print your insert.

This card also looks great in Silver and White - we used bright pink mulberry paper in place of the gold card. You could also try it without text, with your names on the front, or using a different font.

NB: Unfortunately the angel hair used in this project is no longer available - try this project without the angel hair or experiment with these alternatives:

  • white mulberry paper with silver threads (white/silver version)
  • silver pearlescent paper (white/silver version)
  • gold/ivory embossed flower paper (cream/gold version)
  • Burgundy mulberry paper (cream/gold version)
