Lemons and Limes Bridal Shower

Happy Tuesday!  We are so excited to share these adorable bridal shower invitations with you.  The bride, Samantha's theme is lemons and limes, so we felt inspired to create something unique and fun for her.  We were able to find paper that looks just like the peel of a lime.  That really added a lot to the invitation.  The two colors together really pop, especially for a late summer wedding.  These invitations did make me crave a margarita, but I can't have one of those right now.  

We hope you enjoy the process from beginning to end.  :)  

Just a few of the supplies we needed to get started.

The invitations themselves are 4x6.  The flap at the top adds character to the invitation.  

Little limes were a great addition to the invitation.  We used the same paper, so it all coordinated together.  :)

Aren't the limes just adorable?  One of my favorite parts to the invitation.  

It took some time to get the font and spacing just right for this one.  Having the flap that comes over the top and the lime took some creativity with the printing, but it turned out perfect.  

Almost done, just need to add the ribbon.  

Finished product!!  
We are so happy with how these turned out for Samantha's bridal shower.  As I say every time we make something, "I think this might be my favorite so far," so I guess it is for the moment.  That is until we make a new invitation and I fall in love with that design.  :)

Also, we now have a Twitter account:  @SimplyBInspired.  You should follow us.
