    I've decided to make my own invites (my theme is yellow and could NOT find a nice invite anywhere!) I've found a really good website that makes tri-fold invites but now i'm just looking for some pretty backing paper.

    I've been to several shops and couldn't find any (they all seemed to be in packs of assorted whereas i want mine to be all the same).

    any ideas/websites/advice?

    xxxxxxx
    p.s i've put the link on my wall for the invites. And also sorry if what i've typed made NO sense whatsoever. ha xxx

    aww thanks you guys!

    I'll have to try hobbycraft. I looked online but in store would have a better choice i think, the nearest one is Wolverhampton which is about 45mins drive away!

    I looked on E-bay for little bows and things, but some of them are in The Range for just £1! on E-bay they were trying to flog the exact same ones for about £3.

    And velcro dots are quite cheap in Staples £4 for 25, E-bay was about £2.50 for 10
