TESSA Girls !

Hi I just got my proof sample in the mail from Tessa and the design is beautiful. The only problem is that my dad and I feel like the paper used for the inserts & invitation feels like any other paper. She did send me some paper samples I don't like them much either. My envelope and layering is metallic that is fine, but the inserts and invitation paper is Smooth White I think it's flimsy, i can change it, but i just wanted to know what paper are you girls using? Thanks

Brenda

my proof is on her website in the 'under construction' Nicole & Michael - its a chocolate brown metallic cardstock - its actually very thick - I would tell her that you want something thicker - she will def take care of it

The inserts for the directions, accomodations, etc. yea they are a little bit thinner than the pocketfold but they are still a cardstock

I'm using the white felt paper. It's got a really nice texture!

This might sound a little dumb, but does 'Smooth, Linen, Laid/Felt and /metallic' are they considered card stock. My inserts are 'Smooth' paper. I was thinking of either 'Laid/Felt' which is what my mom and dad like best or Metallic. But if i choose Metallic inserts do you think that's too much metallic, since the pocketfold and layering is already metallic?

My parents like the felt paper better. FH hasn't seen it yet, b/c I just got it this morning. Thanks !

I just got my proof today too and my inserts are a light weighted cardstock.

I like it a lot, but I am debating switching to the metallic paper since I think it will make my flourish glow. HTH!
