Gorgeous Grunge Meets A Groovy Love Postcard Wedding Invitation Stampin Up! UK

The card I am sharing with you today is another Wedding Invitation, but could be used for any event invitation. I have coupled 3 stamp sets:

GROOVY LOVE

GORGEOUS GRUNGE

POSTCARD (now retired)

The postcard stamp is one of my all time Favourites, so will stay with me indefinitely, along with my En Francais background stamp .... along with a good few others he he

I added an extra dimension by using the Birthday Blooms Designer Series Paper (DSP) Pack, and co-ordinated the ink pads, with the DSP

Mint Macaron & Basic Grey

The sentiment comes from the Hostess Stamp Set - AND MANY MORE

and I have used the Banner Punch to create the label
