DIY Invites are finally done and ready to be mailed!!!! (with PICS)

What a project! I'm so glad we're done... DIY invites really are a lot of work, but we're so happy with the final product. We're going to mail them out sometime this week!!!

Here are some pics!

Pocketfold invite




Some close-ups





My mom's cat was very curious




Invite w/ all the inserts (and tissue paper with our picture on it)




Response card




Front of invite w/ bow




Back of invite... we cut slits on the back of the pocketfold and fed the ribbon through so it shows in the back.





A work in progress....




Ready to be mailed!!!



Thanks for looking!

**See instructions on DIY board**
