We decided to make our own save the dates and are going to make our own invites (pictures in profile) :-) x

aww thanks Princess2be, we thought the font was appropriate lol x

They look good Laura :) x

This thread is amazing! You are all ridiculously talented! x

why cant i do anything arty :( my 5 year old boy is better than me lol x

Wow Mundith!! how gorgeous!
xx

I made these - (these are not the ones i have made mine are my theme and more beads) these are wine glass charms and im using these as our table names and also our favours! People love what i have done and have actually made these for 5 other brides :)xxx

thanks ladies :) love the charms natalee

Aw Natalee! They are lush! I may have to steal that idea :p Hayley, I think you can pick up things like that from craft shops and I know that the Range sometimes stocks stuff like that. x

Some amazing things on here !

Those roses are fab going to attempt making them .

Ive seen all the stuff req'd for charms on the bay for those interested!

How much do the charms cost to make (each)? They look a lot nicer than the usual name place cards.
Thankyou

i couldnt tell you hun, i just buy in bulk, If someone wants a few i charge £1 each and a lady has just asked me to make 50 for her and i am charging her 30 including postage and she is happy :D x

found them:

and am now in the process of making 25 of these for a Hen night xx

I absolutely love them, they're amazing! xxx

i did the charms too lightly differently but i agree makes a personal feel and much nicer than standard place cards and makes a nice keep sake after

I was bored tonight so did a trial diy invitation (in my albums), obviously the real ones will be made with a lot better quality materials lol.
The actual invites will be made using silver pearl card, mint pearl card (the part I have coloured in) & pearl paper for the printed section (goes green when the light catches it).
The butterfly will be made using mint green glitter card with a Martha Stewart punch, there will be a pocket on the right side of the invite for the RSVP, directions, etc.
What do you think??

Invite looks fab, you should see the state of my trial DIY one, its just biro and folded paper haha

Can't wait to see it, I should pull my finger out and trial a decent one of mine lol, I just can't be bothered xD

Yea course you can do natalee! I was of the same attitude, but there are so many templates and guides out there :) we are making our invites now so will post a pic when weve got one. X

I am making my own invites and I don't have the greatest of artistic skills and I just used scrap paper to make a vague template after looking online for ideas for the actual invite itself and inserts. When I started though ideas just appeared and I think they look ok lol! Pictures in one of my albums.
