CommentAuthorKayteeG
You can get nice peel off borders and corners that might help add a bit more x
CommentAuthorBradshaw2Be
ohh gold along the spine would look nice, maybe get some ribbon to go down the side? Good eye MrsH2B
CommentAuthorbiochrissy
Ive got some ribbon i could try, so you think a bit of gold would be best? Xx

well there's gold in the label so it will bring that out more.
CommentAuthorvicandsimon
I like no 3. You could put some little diamantes or pearls up the edges. I bought iron-on diamantes from a fabric store really easy to use and only a coupe of pounds for a few hundred!

i think your h2b could be right lol, i like no.3 best too x
CommentAuthorbarbie86
Number 3, but I'd experiment with where you place the lettering (I think it might look nice off centre eg higher up and closer to the edge) and I agree that it's maybe missing something. If you don't have a colour scheme, how about putting a strip of cream ribbon on the lace set in about 1cm? Another design which can look quite nice is ribbon in a bow down the side, or criss cross ribbon ie down the side set in a bit and then along the top edge (does that make sense?!)
Very nice though; that's the type of thing I'll be doing, simple and understated :-)
CommentAuthorspooney24
No 3 is the best one for style but I would suggest (and you dont need to do them if you dont wish to) moving the writing to the top or bottom of the lace but centred and add a ribbon or piece of card in gold,just a small thin piece that is the length of the cardto either end of the lace (ie spine area or other end but under the lace so peaking out). Hope that makes sense as its hard to describe without doing it yourself to show what you mean.

The on e with the red bow is a colour we both like but decided was prob a bit dark for a summer wedding. Nothing else has that colour in it. So what do you think to these ones?

Number 6 is beautiful, very classy :0) xx
CommentAuthorloubyscooby
When I make cards I usually off center stuff , so IMO I love no 6 but would suggest the following - move the bow up slightly to top left corner about 1 inch down from the top and then move the wording down to about 2 inches from the bottom that way you have something at the top and the bottom to balance it out. If you want to add a bit more colour you could use a thicker strip of ribbon (like on pic 4) in gold to match your writing and then layer the thinner ribbon over the top in the ivory colour. They are lovely though. Well done.

You could also try it on a pearlised card so that the right of the lace as some texture. Could also add a diamante gem to the middle of the bow. They look lovely though - well done xx

id say number 3, its lovely.x
CommentAuthorloubyscooby
Oh sorry, I thought the writing on the card saying wed invite was in gold. If it is you can always mount the wording card onto a slightly bigger gold coloured piece of card to make it stand out a little more

Ah i really hadnt thought of that. I'll have a rummage tnite when ive finished work t see what other card ive got otherwise ita another visit t the shops on saturday xxx
