    I'm going to begin addressing my invitations this weekend and I'm playing around with them first. I would like to know what you think of my work so far. When I addressed the STD I used the same ink color so I thought I should keep it that way. Don't worry they will be centered, the spacing with be the similar, and the ink flow will be better when I actually do them. 

    Do you like the orange or do you think I should use black?

    What do you think of the font?

    Should I keep it or try something different?

    Um, my "calligraphy" now looks like poop! Maybe I head a cheapo pen. I love the swirlies! I'd be so psyched to get this in the mail!!! I think hand-address invites are THE way to go Opinions needed and wanted for my DIY calligraphy. :  wedding invitations diy Icon Biggrin. Fabulous job!

    Love the font and love the color. If anything, I wouldn't space out the zip code so much. Great job!

    I actually thought the zip code was neat like that! But you could do it this way too to make it easier for Mr. Postman

    Lovin' it!! I list ejs's suggestion for putting the hearts at the front and back of the zipcode. Either way they are awesome...

    Loving it!  Good job... and making me feel slightly inadequate.  I agree about the hearts, it detracts a little from your gorgeous script!
