Wedding Invites

The wedding invites I've been working on recently have now been sent out in the post, so I think it should be OK to put up a picture.  They were made using kraft card, folded up to make a wallet, decorated with ribbon and lace and tied at the top with ribbon in a bow.  They were sent through the post like this using large letter stamps and seem to have survived the trip OK.  Inside there were four 'labels' with a heart-shaped top and the first one also has a wee brown pearl heart on it.
  They were cut out kraft card on the Craft Robo machine - which seems to have an aversion to kraft card and proceeded to chew up quite a bit of it!! - grrr! Then the details were all printed in a golden brown colour on pearlised cream card and stuck on top.  I made 70 altogether - in a sort of production line system. Just the Order of Service booklets (80 of them!) to do now!!
