    Hey ladies xx

    Can i have your opinions please, i have made an invite, which i am hoping to use...i cant make the rest of them yet as we still need to book the time of ceremony...so the cards have to go through my printer first.

    The cam has not picked up the colours to well, but its ivory and green if you cant see?

    I have made a placecard which goes with the invites..but i also have a dove model too, i cant decide what looks better? the dove has a name on it, but it doesnt show up on cam too well either but you can get the idea.

    My centrepieces are birdcages incase ur wondering where the dove has come from...so if i dont use the dove for the place names...shall i use it to name the tables? (which will be attatched to the cage)

    these are not the cages we are using...just one i already have. The rolled up piece of paper is 'pretending to be a scrol, which will contain a lottery ticket, these are our favours x

    I think the dove with the scroll is lovely and would make fab napkin ties too as an alternative to the favour.
    Your invite colours are really pretty. Have you considered using a satin ribbbon which would hide the join between the pattern and plain card? It may add a little more depth of colour and make it look richer?

    I haven't voted, because I love everything you have done! I think using the dove is so different and looks very original, classy and elegant! Well done

    ahhh, thanks for your comments ladies :)...
    I have tried a satin ribbon as you say to make it look more of a colour...but i cant get the colour i need...they are the wrong tone of green....as i am a fussy pants with colours lol! My lovely Mil2b suggested using the ribbon just above the join of the card....might try it on another one. x
    well it looks as though i may have to make another 80 of these lil doves then.....:)

    The dove with the scroll is both quirky and traditional.. I like it a lot and may have to pinch the idea slightly.. but with elephants lol!

    The invitation is stunning, very elegant, the only thing I would change would be the ribbon, i would make it wider and ruffle it in slightly when it gets to the heart this will darken the shade slightly and be very pwetty! Otherwise, im jealous, hope mine look like that when they are done!

    awww elephants! I love elephants...are you off on safari?
    ok i will have a go with some wider ribbon, thanks for your suggestions xx I have found another cookie cutter which i will use instead as it gives a cleaner image that the shape is actually a bird lol! Its exactly the same shape as the bird on my invites! :)

    Nope, I wish we were! I can't have horses, bit to predictable of me lol, and my house is full of happy ellies lol so I thought Elephants would be a little different!
