hi there, no help I'm afraid, but I will also be getting married around that time (no date set yet) and also have not got anything organised yet. Good luck with the invites!

hiya!! what theme are you thinking of?

the favours could be boxes with the wording you chose printed around the bottom.
Or you could have tags with the wording on it.

cream and red sounds fab for invites. you can add gold too.

red hearts or roses will be nice if you like that sort of thing.

you can also do slightly diff invotes for all day and evening.

Red heart with a bit of gold thread round it is nice on cream card matted on gold card.....nicked heart idea from Whizz. Also on the white one with the red ribbon, you could make it in cream, change heart colours around, this one is very very easy. The last one, you could change the cream ribbon to red and instead of your initials, put love beyond measure in pale gold behind the writing... endless possiblities. If you need some hearts cut, give me a shout.

I also have a font cd you can borrow, if you need it. HTH & good luck. Wedding invites & new baby cards are my favourite cards to make.

Right I took the heart & card off the other one and have added some pics to show you how easy it is. You need 40 hearts, some gold thread and cream & gold card plus 40 small square cards. I can cut the hearts for you if you want. All you do is put a piece of double sided sellotape on the back of the heart, wrap some thread round it and then stick the heart onto a square of cream and then on a slightly larger gold. Some thick DS tape from the pound shop to apply to the card, (will tell you where to get stuff later) and you have your topper. You then buy the gold wedding invitation peel offs from craft store and put them on bottom of card.

Please could you send me 2 or 3 hearts with gold on them as you have answered my troubles regarding my best friends 10th wedding anniversary card.
I will pay you or i will send you something if i have anything that you would like, let me know as i have quite a bit of stash.

Sorry for the hijack btw
