A Handmade Holiday continues today with the spotlight on Invitations by Alecia who offers custom and handmade wedding invitations. I love what she says in her shop . . . "If you can dream it, we can make it." Alecia also believes in using recycled papers, tree-free papers and  free trade papers - LOVE THIS!!!!! 

Alecia currently has several holiday themed cards for the holidays each one is made by hand and this one features real fabric on the outside and lining the envelope.

The following 3 cards come as a set with envelopes and are made by hand, using burlap, paint and cardstock.

And, Alecia designs the most amazing invitations. I love the embellishments she adds to them - whether it's closing the invitation with a sash and rhinestone buckle or sealing everything inside a box - it creates a definite wow factor, don't you think?
