    Thanks girls, I love the blue too, was going to do yellow but as h2b is an avid city fan, he really wanted our theme to be blue:rolleyes:

    Really need to get a guillotine or a small paper trimmer as my cutting skill aren't the best

    Yellowbug - I originally wanted pocket invites, but the blanks were just too expensive for me, I am putting in an info sheet with a map, directions and local hotels, but will also direct everyone to our wedding website too as all the info is on there.

    It too ages to make them, good job I have plenty of time, so i can keep going back to them.

    Have a look at this site, it may help you out a little.

    cards and pockets

    My friend made her own pocket invitations for her hen night and they turned out fab. She made them out of A4 card and folded the pockets in. They were gorgeous!
