Things You'll Need

• Pencil
• Ruler
• 8 1/2 inch by 5 1/2 inch pink cardstock
• 4 inch by 5 1/4 inch white cardstock
• Scallop scissors
• Black ribbon, 1/4 inch to 3/8 inch
• Hole punch

Instructions

1. Lay the card stock horizontally. Measure 2 inches from the top left side of the paper and 6 1/4 inches from the left side of the paper. Score a straight line at each one of these marks.

2. Fold the paper inward at each of the scored lines. You will now have a tri-fold card. On the outer edge of each flap, measure one inch down from the top of the card. Make a small pencil mark. Use the ruler to draw a line from that point diagonally up to the top left corner of the card. Repeat on the other flap.

3. Measure 1/2 inch in from the inner edge of the flap and draw a light pencil line. Punch four holes, evenly spaced apart, down the pencil line. Repeat this step on the other flap.

4. Cut a piece of black ribbon that is about eight inches long. Tie a knot in one end, then thread the ribbon through the bottom left hole. Lace the ribbon through the hole that is second from the bottom on the right side, then diagonally back across through the third hole up from the bottom on the left side, and diagonally across again up through the top hole on the right side. Repeat this process on the opposite side, tying a knot in the ribbon and threading it through the bottom hole on the right side. Leave the ribbon untied.

5. Use the scallop scissors to cut the top and bottom edge of the smaller piece of card stock. Print the bachelorette party invitation on the smaller paper, then slide it inside the pink card, beneath the threaded ribbon. Tie the ribbon in a bow and send.This invitation will set the theme for the party and will make a great keepsake for the bride's scrapbook.
