If you've learned one thing about Kiran by now, it's that she LOVES her paisleys! Her decor radiates between paisleys and peacocks, and is quite a thing to behold--just beautiful. So when it came time to make her shower invitations, there was only one place for me to go--For the Bride. Kiran has been saving this stamp set and planning its deployment long before her lucky groom popped the question, and I was both excited and nervous to finally make her vision a reality.
The good news is that Kiran LOVES the invitations, so I did something right. I went with a color combination of Cherry Cobbler and Very Vanilla because Hindu brides wear red on their wedding day. I used my trusty Big Shot and the Framed Tulips Embossing Folder to create the textured edge. I stamped the "paisley bride" (Kiran's name for the stamp set) on Very Vanilla with the matching Cherry Cobbler ink, and added the invitation sentiment in Early Espresso.
The back has all the details for the shower...and there is loads of fun in store for Kiran at the end of June. I hope she's ready!
Cheers!

Such a nice post. Went for our college get together at one of the huge and budgeted event space Atlanta few days back. Buffet system for snacks and lunch was good and even easy to manage. Games played by everyone were entertaining and even the desserts were of good quality.
