Ok, I'm not even at the actual invitation, just the envelope, yep the ENVELOPE! And not just any ol envelope, a handmade FABRIC envelope ![]()
We start w/ a roll of super cute (says me) monkey fabric, 
The we draw a template of an envelope, scan it into our nifty .ai program, adjust the curves, import it into out Make The Cut program (to use w/ Cricut machines):

Apply fusible web stuff to fabric and iron onto cardstock backing.
Then we cut with said Cricut:

And it spits out this odd thing:

Proceed to Score:

Fold:

Apply more iron on glue stuff to the overlays, and voila, you finally come to terms with the fact that you have indeed become "that" mom:

I love them!
I saw that machine for sale somewhere for less than $100. I think it was Joanne's when they had a sale along with a 40% coupon.
