It's a chocolate brown color, but doesn' look like it in the pictures..
I am getting direction cards from the hall so I didn't include a direction card, but thanks to Laura [Lsorrent] she gave me the idea to include our wedding website!
Let me know what you ladies think!!! Thanks

Re: My First DIY Pocketfold Invitation!
It looks great!
Imo, don't starting printing them all up now. Doing a mockup is fine but it's way to early to start printing them. I'm getting married in 7 months and won't start printing mine for another 3 months.
Also, I would either a) shorten the quote before 'Together with our parents' or b) change the font of that so the emphasis is still on 'Together with our parents...' It loooks like it's all running into one another.

Re: My First DIY Pocketfold Invitation!
Thanks ladies for all your opinions, I am definetly taking them all into consideration, so I do thank you for that.
I know someone asked if it was hard to make, It wasn't that bad.. It did take me about an hour to make just the one, but I had to keep reprinting to make sure it was all centered and such.
Definetly a pain in the butt, but totally worth the savings!

Re: My First DIY Pocketfold Invitation!
I think they look great!! The only thing I would change is to match the wording - it says 'Together with OUR parents... request the honour of your presence at THEIR marriage.' They should either both be 'our' or both be 'their'.

Re: My First DIY Pocketfold Invitation!
I was wondering--what did you use to stick the cardstock onto the pocketfold?

The kit came with little stickies to put on the back of the invitation... but I think I may glue them so they hold better.

Re: My First DIY Pocketfold Invitation!
They are really pretty! I would just be careful doing them sooo early though. A lot can change between now and 2012. With a year to my wedding I had to change my church. Had I made my invites already I would have had to throw them out and start from scratch. NOt only would that be a pain but it would cost extra money.
I say if you are playing with different invites to get an idea of layout and style that's fine but don't finalize anything until no more than 4 months before.
