And, here they are... my invitations! Now, when everybody has their own I can show you what I spent so much time with. They are made from recycled paper (by paper-source), wrapped in floristic fabric, and nested in a box (by paper-source). The boxes  were the first thing I bought when I was thinking about my wed invitations. Everybody who was getting it in person was asking me if there is a chocolate inside! Sorry guys, just paper and couple plastic beats:-) Even my uncle was teasing me if I'm bringing a bomb, hehe. Making the invitation was a big process... a lot of frustration was in the game and a lot of paper was thrown away (recycled). But, on the end I think that it was worth all of the work and time I spent on it.

Tak toto sú naše svadobné pozvánky. Teraz Vám ich konečne možem ukázať kedže každý pozvaný obdržal tú svoju. Sú vyrobené z recyklovaného papiera (paper-source a farber-castle), zabalené vo floristickej textílii a pekne uložené v krabičke tiez od paper source. Základ bol krabička, zvyšok prišiel postupne. Každý kto dostal pozvánku osobne sa vypytoval či je to čokoláda! Ale bohužial bol to len papier a pár plastových perličiek. Dokonca moj strýko ma naťahoval či mu nesiem bombu. Vytvotiť každú pozvánku ručne bol boj... stálo ma to veľa nervov a veľa papieru bolo skonzumovaného (recyklovaného), ale na druhej strane to všetko stálo za to vytvoriť niečo originálneho.

Well, the anniversary is not today but soon it will happen... in 6 days and I rather do this in advance because last time I forgot my 1st year celebration completely. When I am thinking about it I should have put 2 candles on the cake... I guess next time:) This time I want to celebrate it with a little giveaway....


So, what one of you will win? We have a lot of goodies here... couple papers from Paper-Source, origami paper, blank cards, ribbons, feathers (even from my parrots), glass markers, little artificial roses, some glitter, tags, and much more. Simply leave a comment under this blog. If you have a blog post this candy on it and leave a link back to this post. If you don’t have a blog, that’s okay too. Just go ahead and leave your comment with your email. Oh, and let us know where you’re from! It’s so fun to find out how many different places each of you are. I also will be honored if you become my follower but that's completely optional:)

What else to say... oh yeah... the date might be important. Let's say you have until Thursday, September 30th and I'll pick a random winner the next day on Friday. Good luck to you!

PS: By the way, I'll ship anywhere:)

... and also nicely placed in a chocolate paper box from Paper-Source (the dotted paper on the 2nd pick also by Paper-Source). Soft felt heart sewed onto solid green card from Paper-Source, ribbon from Retif, love statement from Shakespeare on print paper, and brown shredded paper for nesting the card is all what you need.

Today, I am going to pick up Darren at the airport. I can't wait to see him after 3 months being separated by the Atlantic. He is going to help me out with the wedding and I sure have a lot of project for him. Wish me luck:)

PS: By the way, I finally picked my dress yesterday and right under my nose, in my little town:) It was about time... only 25 days left...

...makes me always think... love is hard, love is painful, love is playful, love can be shown in many ways. But, love... says Geothe... stays always with us, whether we are sacrificing everything for it or are refusing it. Geothe was a smart man...

I was always wondering what I will use this mirror hearts for that were lying in my stack for while and now I know. They are from retif and they are cool. Blank card is from paper-source and the dotted card-stock used many times before is one of the designs by Amy Butler. The citation is printed on a regular white print paper. I like how the sun reflects in the mirror hearts and I am ready to use them for more projects now. Such a waste hiding them in the dark drawer for such a long time:)
