Where we are trying to save a little here and there is on the invites. my fiance and a friend of hers are going to make the cards, but what we want is card pockets to put the invite in and then send it all in an envelope - like here:

We want the pocket to be in a sort of cornflour blue colour, but can't find anyone who sells these pockets anywhere.
Anyone have any idea?
we made our invitations and had big problems finding envelopes that a) fitted the invitaions and b) weren't ugly, evenually found them in one of those discount book stores in a set of card and envelopes for £1 for twenty, have a look for sets of things like this in pound stores/discount book stores because you might find your pockets as part of a set...0 -

You could make pockets like that really easily. You could just use the same card that your making the invites with and then everything would match perfectly.
Im making our invites and Ive just decided to make the favour boxes too from the same card. I was going to buy them from ebay but ive got a mountain of card here that someone borrowed from their work for me so I might aswell make use of it.
Im getting the envelopes from an art shop. Ive found ones that I really like that are 30p each but The Paper Mill Shop ( There at various outlet shopping centres across the UK and in the process of making an online shop too http://www.thepapermillshop.co.uk/) sells the same size envelopes for 10p so I just need to find a similar colour now and they will do perfect.

Hello, My goodness this is one massive forum, and this thread will take a week to get threw, LOL, a friend of mine here in Bulgaria in coversation was talking about Martin Lewis and i had remembered seeing him on this morning show some years ago and my friend then was saying the fun that she has and the money she saves with this forum,
I live in Bulgaria now for Four years and i wish that i had done it years ago, i do love it so, My business is wedding dresses and evening Gowns Mother of the bride and Groom suits,
After reading the rules of the site i would not like to advertise myself in text here but i would like to look on your good nature and ask a question,
Q, My prices for a new tailor made dress are very low? but i would like to do more for my clients, for a money saver client besides lowering the prices how could i help more,
you see i find that not many people have the money for the million pound dresses and Im not interested in them, i have a small profit but the turn over is good, hope you are able to give some feed back to my question
PS, i could not find a welcome to Newbie thread?My Aim Is To Give The Best Quality Wedding Dresses And Evening Gown To The World At A Price That Can Not Be Matched, But Not Selling Here0 -
My second ever post!
In the Eagle Centre indoor market in Derby there is a magazine stall that sells a bit out of date magazines for £1 each.
I got May/June 06 You and Your Wedding
June/July 06 Cosmopolitan Bride
and September/October 06 Brides
£3 for all magazines, cover price is £3.49, £4.50 and £4.50! would have been £12.50 in total!
What a bargain! if you are anything like me then you only cut 3 or 4 things out of each mag and recycle the rest!
Have a look when you are passing,
Jemma
