For the label, I scanned the invitation into the computer, ironed freezer paper onto muslin and printed it out. I heat set it after it set for about an hour and it was done. The only thing I should have done was use white fabric instead of the unbleached muslin, it might have looked crisper.

No, I chose the colours as she is very eclectic in her tastes. I don't know them very well yet, so it was definitely a gamble when I chose black & white. But, we gave it to them on Monday and they loved it. Turns out her bedroom is white with black accents.
