Fab, I didn't think they looked cheapo, just wondered if anyone else thought they would

The designs are really nice and would be fab for the evening invites!! Even better that todays email is giving them to me free

I wouldn't bother what other people think. It's your friends and family who they will be going out to!

No doubt there will be someone though who will think they are tacky and naff and won't match up to their £6 cost for each invite :rolleyes:

Mine are the magnets, what are yours? If they are card, do they need backing on more card? (trying to think in my head what you mean lol) x

Sorry LOL - yes magnets Business card size very nice.

So you want to put each magnet onto card?

Don't know how you would do that without ruining the back of each one where the magnet is.

I'm just sending/giving mine out as they are.

I was thinking a square of card that would sit in the envalope<spelling??>
mebbe put a 2 slits in it so the top left corner of the magnet and bottom right corner of the magnet could slip through to hold it in place?
Then I could put "To Aunt Flo" at the top and "From Nixie and Paulie" at the bottom?
I dunno mebbe I'm over complicating. whaddaya think?

Has anyone had any issues with these sticking together in the post? Or to the side of the post box??

P.S. I dont really have an Aunt Flo - how cool would that be :rotfl:

They would be brill! Cheap too especially as they come with the envelopes!!

Maybe write who exactly is invited on the other side and 'formal invitation to follow' if that's not already on your magnets (like me who forgot that, doh!)

Well spotted! :T
