golden anniversary invitations

This year, my grandparents on both sides of my family are celebrating their 50th wedding anniversaries. My dad's parents celebrated this past summer as part of a double 50th anniversary/family reunion at the family cottage, it was a huge event with lots of family around. My mom's family on the other hand is much smaller, my mom had the bright idea to make the invitations ourselves (me). Although she did find the inspiration and paid for all the material I can honestly say she didn't do much of the work herself! This is what we came up with, the inside is layered and printed with all the details (that's the part I left for her to do!).

What we (I) used:

• gold, cream and black paper-stock
• lace inspired ribbon
• Martha Stuart Edge Punch
