Cased from alliohran But I had more information to include on my invitation, so made the left panel into an opening flap and put more information under that.
The bride's colors are lavender, and silver and/or gray. I've never worked with these colors together before, but I like the way it turned out.
Too many details:
The top layer is Lacy Brocade EF inked with Wisteria Wonder. The left edge was scored at 1/2 inch and folded under the white invitation panel. The brushed silver was embossed with a flower collage from Fabulous Florets and Secret Garden (only the edge shows, but it gives it that elegant something.) To add contrast to the Lovely Lilac base card, I added a Basic Gray panel under the silver. The stamped #10 envelope echoes the silver embossing in Wisteria Wonder ink.
Excused the smudge printed portion, but I wanted to protect private information.
Measurements:
Purple Base= 3 7/8” x 9 1/4”
Gray Layer= 3 1/4” x 8 1/2” (Paper Saver: cut die cuts out of middle to save paper and weight)
Silver Layer= 3” x 8 1/4” (Paper Saver: cut die cuts out of middle to save paper and weight)
Stamp and Emboss flowers on Silver using Versamark ink and Silver embossing powder
White (wording)= 2 1/4” x 7 5/8”
Purple Top=2 7/8” x 8 1/2” Score at 4.25"
Lace and Silver Cording-each cut at 6 1/2”. Tie together in a knot. And wrap around front flap.
Purple Liner to cover ribbon ends=2 7/8” x 1 1/2” Goes inside front purple flap.

Very pretty! You worked these colors together beautifully. I like the embossing on the left side. How clever to put more information under the panel. Nicely done! TFS
