I need . . . . cards, envelopes, inserts, gold & silver jewel type things & that's about it!!

Any idea where online I could get these things without breaking the bank?? I'd rather go on someone's recommendation than order from somewhere I've never heard of & risk being disappointed

We used www.daintreepaper.co.uk [Daintree Paper]] based in Edinburgh. They had some lovely papers of different types/colours and other bits and bobs plus lots of ideas and sample invites for you to make. Card folding service too. Highly recommend

Hmm - first go at a link. Let's try again

I have used Craft Creations in the past but other card makers have recommended Ideal Envelopes.

Do you have a Paper Mill Shop nearby?

I use quite a few different online suppliers for different things. I buy my card in bulk at the Paper Mill shop and fold it with a bone folder for a good professional finish. Depending on how many invites/card you are looking at though, this may not work out cost effective.

Thanks ladies, I will have a look after I've had a soak & glass of wine now the kids are both tucked up in bed.

We're probably looking at about 70 invites in all so maybe pre-folded ones would be something to look at. Not sure if we have a Paper Mill shop close to us, I'll have a look for that too.

Your help is much appreciated

If you have a particular idea for what "bits and bobs" you need, I might be able to direct you for those too!

Good luck!

Thanks Dingle.

My idea for the invitations, place cards & some other bits was just 2 rows of large-ish oblong shaped gold & silver 'jewels'. Trying to keep it as simple as possible & quite matchy if you know what I mean.

My dress is a bit grecian inspired & is having gold & silver jewels under the bustline so was going to use that as a starting point for everything else.

If you've any idea where I might be able to get those that'd be fab . . . then I can order everything & start making

I'm dying to get going

I always see this place recommended for bling & bits but have never ordered from them myself. JosyRose

there are lots of ideas in the gallery atDocrafts website but limited product ordering facilities. But if you go into the chat forum (you dont need to register to read) I am sure that you will find some good reccomendations.

Fab, thanks soccerwidow, I'll check them out in the morning. I have a list of things to get so will be ordering & hopefully starting making this week!
