Invitations



With a photograph of the mother's and the father's hands wrapped around their precious new life, I cropped and tweaked and printed small photographs for the invitations. Since I was limited to my supply of plain white card stock, the blue background was achieved with just a few brush strokes of ordinary craft paint severely thinned with water. That set the tone for all the rest of the homemade decorations - a brush stroke of blue. Mounting the little photographs
on scraps of card stock trimmed with pinking shears, provided the white frame on the blue field. the rest was just computer printing, a bow and a button.
