First Draft of Wedding Invites I Made- What Do You Think- Pics Inside!

OK--- I found these handmade invites on a website, but to have them made it will cost over $500 for only 75 invites plus other stuff.......

I tried to replicate it, and it's only the first draft, so don't be too harsh yet! The Original one (Sample) is in the burgundy color, Mine is in Navy. The cardstock is white right now, but it will be in an Off white or Ivory....

Also...On The Sample invite the ribbon isn't attached. Once you open it the ribbon falls off. When I did mine, I cut a slit and I attached the ribbon on the first fold.....

I'm still undecided if I ant the date on the front, b/c the date is also on the inside of the invite... But there still is a lot of fine tuning to do, but THANKS TO ALL!!!!

Oh, I got he skeleton leaves at Michaels, but I found them online alot cheaper!!!
