Step 1. Cut from the card the arbour gate and cut in half down the middle.





Step 2 Using the vellum and the sticky embossing powder stamp the sentiment. Heat the embossing powder and press on the gilding flakes – using a scrunchie to remove any excess.


Step 3. Cut two panels of vellum to fit the arbour gate halves and cover each piece of vellum with versa mark ink. Cover with sticky embossing powder and repeat the gilding flakes as above.


Step 4. Use a PC to compose the details of the wedding. Print out.. A handwriting font looks best.

Step 5. Decorate the panel using the stamps in a combination of silver embossing powder and stamping with distress inks.




Step 6. Place the vellum panels behind the arbour gate halves and glue. Then take the base piece of card  and cut to 18x13 cm. Glue the gates on either side around the outside edges. Leave the middle so that you can insert the decorative elements.


Step 7. Insert the wording in the middle of the gates. Then place the ribbon at the top and bottom of the wording. Affix the “save the date” vellum at the top and at the bottom use one of the buckles and tie ribbon to either side of it.

  1. Oh my god! This is something really different. I have to share this post with my best friend. We love to make cards and invites but this is something new for us. Our mutual friend is getting married in an event space San Francisco by the end of this year and we have to make invites for her wedding.
