Hi!! Just wanted to say that this invitations are simply stunning and you’ve inspired me to make my own wedding invitations 😊 I do have a question about the paper that you have printed the main invitations with the green elements as well as the drawing of the location and details on… is this the Bockingford Printer Paper? Thank you!!!!!!!!!!

It is very time-consuming! I created my brothers' wedding invites and the custom cut I did on it was so intricate that I was lucky to have my mom help punch out the pieces of paper that were still left after the Silhouette cut them. I thought it was a nice wedding gift, and even though it took a bunch of time and cost quite a bit, I didn't have to buy a standard wedding gift.

Congrats, they turned out beautifully!

Hello Minnie! I was wondering If you could tell me for how long this inks for printer lasts ? And are you using original inks or those cheaper one? I always wanted to make wedding invitations and thanks to your film I want to finally buy a printer, but im still reconsider which one buy, the epson xp 970 like you or with eco tank. Thank you ! I love your art 🙂

This is so amazing! I feel so honored to watch you and be accompanied by your vids for years now.

I would like to know which paper you made the transparent stickers out of. I looked up the Bockingford print papers but could not find it.

So very beautiful! I am very excited for you. My daughter is getting married in Hawaii in Sept. I made her name place/cards/bookmarks and table # markers in watercolor. Best wishes to you & Ozzy from Utah, USA.

If I had gotten such a stunning invitation, I would’ve thought it was professionally done and not a DIY project. I would have mentioned how wonderful it looked either way, but at such a high level as this (on top of that not knowing potentially they have such an amazing talent, if the person is private with their art skills). It sounds silly to say talent, due to so little is talent when it’s in fact, countless hours of hard work and dedication that gets people to this level art wise! Your mum is right, these are the types of invitations people wish to save and also frame. I caught myself sitting with a smile and often saying ”wow” throughout this video! Thank you for sharing this with us💐

Just preordered your book because, honestly, I've been a big, quiet fan for a while. I love your work and what a gorgeous concept for your invitations! Congrats to both of you! 🙂

Congratulations to both of you. A very beautiful invitation.

Regarding the paint brush, I’ve use warm water to remove dried acrylic paint off paint brushes; it just peels off. May work for you.
