So here is some pics of the invite and inserts. They are not ready to print yet, still need some tweaking... but they are the basic idea. I don't know why I can't get them to post more clearly... and why the reception card does not have the border all the way around or why the direction is bigger...
And again, I know these are not everyone's taste...
BUT do you guys think that having a different illustration on each card is a yay or a nay? Do you see a cohesiveness? Am I out of my fukcing mind, talking about cohesive invites? (do I need an intervention Christine )
I wanted to post to get some feedback, even though they aren't fully done.

INTERVENTION TIME!!!!!!!
I LOVE the varying graphics from insert to insert. As long as the colors blend nicely, which they do...you've pulled off the perfect image and invitation! LOVE 'EM!

Re: DIY invites - update
thanks so much girls. I really appreciate your posts. I can't take all the credit though, fh did a lot of the work. He is the art director of this wedding, and a great designer. But the wording and the idea were all me!
The illustrations are from some website that sells stock photography and illustrations. I think they were $1 each. I can ask fh for you when he gets back from lunch.
anyhow, thanks again everyone for the kind words.
now we just have to finish the STD! we got so caught up in the invites we haven't done anything with that.
