Phyzelda - Would you mind telling me how much they work out at per invite?

Im planning on doing something very similar and have been looking at pre-made invites that you just have to print on and assemble and they cost around £2 each.

Thanks

They look small until you start building them up. I thought exactly the same when they came flat packed

Holiday was lovely thank you

Plus doing it this way, they are one of a kind and made with the personal touch (and that to me adds value)

They're gorgeous! I really want to make my own but I worry that they'll look awful!

One question if you don't mind me being too nosy - what font did you use? I really like it!
