    I've only done the one invite and RSVP card so far. Only ordered enough to do one for now so that I could make sure it worked out ok and it really was what we wanted before I ordered it all! I'm really chuffed how it went and have ordered everything now! And over ordered supplies... just in case lol

    Fabby!! Love the inserts and the way they are flappy bits (ooer missus ha!) :)
    Just thinking about neatening up the bow. Have you thought about using some good wired ribbon? That'd make sure the bow loops stay up and not go all floppy... but then I don't know if that is important as most people won't have it standing up!!
    Well done!

    Flappy bits... :rotfl:

    It was just a 'prototype' so will spend more time on the bows when I do the proper ones

    I used this you tube clip when I did my bows :) (Mine were similar to yours - in that I had a single strip of ribbon that tied all the way round the invite rather than sticking it to the card).
