Now You have to use you Imagination!!!!

The color of the cardstock on the invite and the vellum are the correct colors- like a cream.

The orange cardstock on the flaps are also the correct color. The large one on the left flap is the response postcard. The small one on the top right will be the hotel information. The middle size on on the bottom right will be directions, front and back.

the ribbon in the sample is not the color I will be using. the ribbon is going to be an orange color.

Starting to picture it?

The horseshoe charm will hang like it is in the sample with a bow but (of course) the wording will be pushed down and begin where the horseshoe ends.

The ribbon that hangs from the bow will remain long but not as long as in the sample.

The 3 orange inserts on the flaps will be held with the ribbon but no bows or ribbon hanging. I am going to sew the ribbon in the back and then glue the ribbon to the card. Each card will be able to slide out.

Can you really picture it?

remember its only a sample and a rough one at that!

What do you think?

very unique. What does the front look like?
Can you maybe add something to the bottom of invitation or move the words down so there is not so much space at bottom.

Don't forget to show us final version!!!

Yes, the wording will be pushed down. Spacing will be perfect.

The front is plain. I thought that was OK- since I dont want it to be look too overbearing...

What do you think? What are your suggestions?

The idea of it folding open and holding the smaller ones in the sides with ribbon is EXACTLY what I wanted to do...can you send me details on how you did it, or where you figured it ...I love them!

I saw a picture in an advertisement of something similar. I'll find it again- its somewhere around. Once I do, I'll see if it states the company and maybe you can find it online- so you can get a picture of where i got it from. I'll FM you directions soon
