    I've just finished making my invites. They were a bit stressful but really personal so I think it's been worth it. I bought cards and inserts, and my brother did a design to our spec on paint shop pro which we printed onto the card. Then I embossed parts of it myself. It took ages to get a design we liked, but we've got something we couldn't buy or make with stuff off the shelf. For example I wanted it to have traditional wedding symbols on it, like hearts, champagne bottle and glasses, rings ect. But we also put on a playstation controller (H2B is a game developer), a pile of books (I'm a librarian), and our house bunny! I think some of a guests think we're a bit mad but I don't care, heehee :)

    How about some nice photo shots of the 2 of you taken in a park or on the beach, print them in black/white at Asda then print on vellum the invite details. Join the 2 at the top with an eyelet and ribbon
