look, i'm so proud of my semi-DIY invites!!! (w/ pics)

hey everyone!! my invites are finally done and in the mail!! i waited to post them b/c some of my guests are lurkers and i didn't want them to sneak any peaks before they got them
but anyway, pics don't do my invites any justice!! they are just so pretty in person!! they are half DIY. i got the cards printed up and cut. but lemme tell you, i was up til 2 am every nite for a week and a half putting these together.

but before i give myself all the credit, i MUST thank Katie&Chris2006. without her super helpful post with directions, i would've never been able to do this. again katie, thank you soooo much!!!
