Imagine a tree hung only in crystal and white. That is the mood of this invitation: cut glass ornaments, white poinsettias, silver snowflakes and pale blue silk bows around a soft cream panel, with the names written in blue script.
It suits a Christmas cocktail evening, a winter engagement party, a holiday dinner for grandparents who like things done properly, or a New Year’s Eve party that wants to start elegant. Put in the names, the evening and the address; the card stays beautiful however long the names run.
Carry the palette into the room with white lights, glass vases of white flowers, silver chargers and ice blue napkins. A sparkling wine at the door completes it. The picture lands on a phone screen as cleanly as it prints, so one card serves both the family chat and the mantel.
