    I'm having the hardest time deciding what kind of invitation that I want. I would to see what others have gone with to give me inspiration. I'm leaning towards a more modern type, but I really have no clue what I like. Thanks!!!

    @khf777:  Wow! That is GORGEOUS!!

    @Summer82:  I had always wanted formal, engraved invitations, but with a twist, and I loved mine.  Below is the online sample of the one I selected. It's a very heavy panel card. (I chose not to have lined envelopes, because I wanted a more traditional look, where the engraving would be visible on all of the pieces in the invitation suite.)Show me your invitations!! :  wedding Crane White Embassy Card Sample For WB

    Here are mine, it's a double-sided invitation. StefanieAstronaut designed them and they were printed by Catprint. I can't help smile when I look at them!

    @winklkr:  Love these!!! I love how they all go together. That's what I want, but I'm not sure how to get it without spending lots per invite.

    @Stassney:  I definitely think yours got overlooked. I LOVE THEM! Did you design them yourself? I see you used Affair Script and it looks LOVELY! I've always wanted a sort of whimsical invitation, and you hit it out of the park!

    @rubyroad10:  @wildcatjack:  They were DIY. It was a very fun and relatively easy process. I am so glad you guys like them!

     

    The accordian style was EASY peasy. I had them printed at Office Max and they scored the fold marks for me. So I just had to cut them apart and fold where the creases already were.
