Have you got a dunelm mill near you? If so, they usually have ex M&S invitations in there - £1 for 10
Could also look in your pound shop if you have one.
Are you any good with MS publisher? You could make your own.....no need for glue!!

They really are not hard, I made all mine.

You'd be surprised at what types of glue you can buy, I got these and they were fab!

Im doing my own which is coming in at about £70 but mine are fancy, complicated things. Lol.

Looking at doing my friends and they want dirt cheap. So it will be a nice piece of card (shiny in their colour scheme) with a printed piece of paper stuck on with all the info and a fancy design (will be a custom design that I'll draw for them). On the back I'll stick another piece with all the guest information for them

Put in a nice envelope (probably printed as well) and it looks smart but only costs about £20 for all of them

I am the less 'crafty' person in the world, so I signed up for Vistaprint, waited for the offers to roll in and did all my day and evening invites for £15, most of which was P&P!

NEH

Tesco's did some nice ones last year and so did Clintons...

Hi all
I've looked at DIY but I'm not very crafty so would end up covering them in gluey finger marks!

i had same concern. then i discovered double sided sticky tape. much easier to use than it sounds.

i printed inserts via vista print. the stickers i used were a bit fiddly but you can get other stickers or even write it on if you have nice handwwriting.

i just stuck the words on a piece of card, stuck on the ring and added diamantes (sticky back.. not very mse as they do cost more but as i mentioned, i had same concern as you)

then used d/s tape to stick card on the main piece.

I made my own - I chose some of the more fiddly ones but got my ideas from here

All you have to do is sign up to get a password - then download, alter and print them off! Everyone has been well impressed by them - they cost me less than £10 (minus the ink) and mine are the orchid
