My DIY invites...done and out!

Another DIY, I went for the cute factor and not really elaborate. These were print at home kits with the vellum overlays. I cut down the original invites by 1/4 inch on each side, to allow them to be mounted onto a pocket holder, which I made from black card stock.

I created the 'pocket' to mount the invite on and hold the response and other cards in place on the back. I love traditional pocketfolds but doing them this way also allowed for less bulk and lighter postage. The accommodation and direction cards I simply printed on cream card stock and cut down to size.

I did not do an inner envelope and opted for a colored belly band with an area to write guests names on.

All envelopes I printed off my computer as well.

READY TO SEND....FINALLY>>>>>>>
