    You can't see very well but the ribbon is dark purple and the ink is a similar colour. We had the invites printed and then I stuck the ribbon and diamante buckle on myself. This was the first attempt hence the slightly wobbly ribbon at the top. Due to my perfectionist tendancies, this didn't make the'ok to send' pile!

    I LOVE this one!

    If we would have had personlised handmade invites, that is exactly what I would have gone for.

    Simple and understated, yet classy! xx

    Thanks hun! I really love it, was rather impressed with my crafting skills as am usually pretty useless! The menus for the tables are the same, except portrait rather than landscape, with the ribbon and buckle around the top.

    We are having ones similar to this, but more movie style and looking more like a movie ticket. two cards in the folder; one actual invitation and one RSVP and music request

    They are gorgeous, reeeeally lovely and I am sure the menus will look just as fab too! :T

    Pity you are getting married after me otherwise I would have hired your skills to make ours! :D

    We made ours using Jessops website and a photo taken in lavender fields near our home. £11 for 10 cards and envelopes and we're pleased with the results!
