Here's a pic of me and my lovely sisters all done up (which doesn't happen very often for me).

She wanted things kept very simple and with a theme roughly based on 'secret garden-y' I designed the items around this.
Here are some of the finished projects...
Seating lists.

Table numbers
As a little extra decoration, I made some little butterflies to go on the wine glasses for the reception tables. They looked so pretty when they were all set up :)
So here's an easy little tutorial on how to do them...
These are soooo easy and is an idea that can be used for any party or special occasion - especially for those girly get togethers!
You will need:
- a butterfly punch (I have used a 2 inch punch).
- paper / cardstock
- scissors
- optional embellishments (eg glitter, embossing powders etc)
Step 1. Take your punch and cardstock and punch out your butterflies.
Step 2. Embellish as desired. To do mine, I have swiped the edges with a VersaMark inkpad, added embossing powder then heated. If you don't have embossing powders you can easily just add glitter or ink around the edges or alternatively just leave them as is!
Step 3. Cut a slit for the butterfly to sit on the glass edge. To do this just fold the butterfly in half and snip with your scissors as shown below.
slip onto your glass and you are done!
Hope this adds that something a little extra to your next party!
Happy creating!!
