Color help

So I want to make my invitations for my eparty and I came across envelopment gatefold invitations. I think they're really cute but I have no clue what colors I want to use. I want them to look really spring like - bright or pastel colors. Colors

Which two colors would you choose? I want one color for the actual invitation and then another for backing and for the little square that I will have close the invitation. I want to choose between the C1 and C2 colors. Please help!!! Thanks!

i actually just ordered a sample gatefold invitation, like the ones your looking to make from another site, cards and pockets. if you want to try it out, they send you the mockup kits so you can mess around with a bunch of different colors to see which combination you like the best. plus if you order a sample, and then decide you want it, they put the money for the sample towards your purchase. and it helped a lot because the two colors i picked were so much darker then the little picture on the site showed. they can also send you the whole color sample swatch kit and you can pick the colors from there. i would definitly check it out because it only took like 4 days to get here once i ordered it and im so glad i did because like i said, the colors showed up so very different.

Just read your post and that is the way to go. I ordered lots and lots of samples of invitations and the pictures online and in the catalogs do not look like the same as they do in person. So I say if there is ever an oppt to order samples do it.
