Cute As A Button Invitations
Here are the invitations for a shower I’m throwing tomorrow: “Cute As A Button”
Here’s how I made them
1. Grabbed a Sharpe and drew the “Cute as a Button” and the little buttons.
2. Scanned the drawing and finished the invitation in Photoshop, printed and rounded corners
3. Cut scrap fabric using rotary cutter
4. Sewed random buttons on fabric using my sewing machine {if you haven’t done this, you’ll be surprised at how easy it is! I’ll never hand-sew a button again!}
5. Sewed two pieces of fabric together with contrasting thread to make pocket and trimmed edges with pinking shears

These are so darling! Hope you have a very special shower.
Adorable!
I’ve worked this theme before, though my invites weren’t nearly as cute (though they did have a button sewn on them!). There is so much that can be done with a simple button. I hope you’ll share the shower pictures :)
Darn cute! I’m impressed with your hand lettering!
these invites are adorable!
very very cute! great job.
OKay Miss “I just had a baby, but in all of my spare time I think I will just whip out some simply amazing hand-crafted invites.” Seriously? These were/are absolutely darling!
@Cassidy – HA! I made these like 4 months ago knowing that life would be hectic. And life is DOUBLE as hectic as I had imagined, so good thing I planned! :)
Thank You!
Those are adorable! I’m pretty obsessed with buttons so I’m in love with these. :)
freakin adorable!
How did you mail these? Did you have to pay extra postage for them? I love the idea!
@Rachel – they fit in an invitation-sized envelope. I bought the envelopes first and made the invitations to fit. Didn’t cost extra!
