Vintage Bridal Shower Gift Card

Posted on August 1, 2011January 2, 2017 by Martha

Today I finished the embroidered wedding napkins and hemmed the cocktail tablecloths. No time to take a break, though, because the bridal shower is Sunday. Most of the work is already done — aprons are made, the pillbox hat craft is ready, cupcakes and flowers are ordered, and decorations are in place. Of course, the house is a complete mess (since I have been doing nothing but sewing), but I have 5 days to clean the house and get the food prepared. It even looks like the weather is going to cooperate.

Here’s a cute card I completely forgot about, since I purchased it last year.  I wanted to print the card larger than the tiny original (2 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ folded), and I also needed to clean up some of the discoloration.  The new card should look okay scaled to fit on letter-sized paper.

    I just love the vintage inspird things you’re using. The big day will be here soon!
    I think this shower and the wedding are going to such fun. Definately memorable.
    I hope you’ll post how the hat decorating went? It sounds so much more fun than some of the standard games that are so common.

    Yes! Do make sure your camera is charged or has good batteries, has film or an empty card (2G SHOULD do it 🙂 ), and then hand it off to someone you trust (ie won’t cut off everybody’s heads) so you can totally enjoy yourself! The shower will be WONDERFUL!!!

    I’ve got company this weekend and am cleaning my house top to bottom (sort of). So I’ll be cleaning with you in spirit.
