Final Invites! Pictures :)

[uptowngirl]

I spent the weekend getting these all figured out and I think I am finally done! The only thing left to do is decide how to address the envelopes - that and put the other 45 of these together!!! :)

Inside:
(The green paper showing on the left side will be an envelope for the rsvp - they are ordered but haven't gotten here yet, so the green is a placeholder)

The invite itself!

And the extras - thank you cards, card for the guest welcome baskets, and name cards (again the green paper is standing in - there will be brown kraft envelopes with wildflower seeds when it's all done)

Nothing is glued down yet - that's why things look a little crooked - so if anyone has any ideas or suggestions let me know!!!

Sarah- Everything you have done is beautiful! I even like the placeholders!! I agree you could make some extra $$$ by designing invites to go along with those wedding albums. You are an amazingly talented lady!:flower:

They look great. I love the colors.

[He_calls_me_Angel]

I can't believe you made those!!!!! I tried DIY and everything I did looked like a 5 y old put it together. Those are AMAZING!

[PGDesigns]

Once again, you've done an AMAZING job! They look so professional. Your guests are going to LOVE them!

Thanks ladies!

I was really surprised at how much help FH was - he came up with the idea of putting the vellum in between, and also helped me figure out how to attach the cards to the inside - he even went with me to the paper store to pick out all the paper!

Here is the cost breakdown:
Cream Paper, envelopes and brown folders: $55
Green paper $20
Raffia Ribbon $5
Response card (and thank you) envelopes $10

So $90 total - but I am getting not just the invites, but also all the thank you's and name cards - I think I even will have plenty of paper left over for the programs - pretty good deal!

Those are amazing!

[Brian's Bride]

Those are simply gorgeous! You should consider a career change!!

Thanks everyone! Funny thing - I just got an email from a photographer asking if I knew anyone who designed invitations, she had a client looking for something custom!

I was kind of stuck on what to do with my envelopes to make them a little more interesting, since they are just plain cream colored... Here is what I came up with - I just ran them through my printer!

Also - there aren't part of the invites, but they go along with the set. My favor tags:

Wow! Where were you when I was going thru my invitation shopping nightmare? :bblol: Everything you have done looks so professional and elegant.

[todaysdestinationwedding]

Very nice job! I agree you should start your own business...:bblol:

As all the other girls have said already, those are absolutely beautiful!! SO jealous!

You did a great job setting the tone with the look of the invitation. The first thing I thought of was a country type setting and then that your wedding is in Vermont!
