Chevron & Green Ombre Invitation - Twinery Design Challenge

The Twinery asked their designers to come up with some Chevron & Green inspiration of their own.  I could not resist sharing with you one of my favorite invitations -- Chevron Ombre Invitation.

SUPPLIES:

Green Tulle
Gold Glittered Paper
Gold Metallic Paper
Green Solid Paper
Green Foam Sheet
Tape
Scissors

INSTRUCTIONS:


1. Cut your paper to the sizes you want depending on the layering look you would like to achieve.  The sample look is a 5.25x7.25 invitation.

2. Adhere the layers together using your tape.  Note: Sometimes when working with foam or glitter paper, you might also use hot glue to make sure the tape sticks properly.

3. Now embellish the invitation with tulle and twine.  I used 3 layers of green tulle and wrapped them around the invite and tied a knot.  Then I used all three of the strands of twine and tied them on top of the tulle.  I just adore how the shimmer twine sparkles against the glitter and metallic papers.

I hope you enjoy the new challenge!
