i thought i was going to do the cute cards with the couple with the lampshades on their heads.. then i rethought it and how much that would cost.
so i started thinking about the making my own option
getting them printed at kinko's on relatively thick paper and then buying envelopes from a website online for the sizes i need.
and so far it will save me tons!
i kind of have concept ready for the ones i want to make.. i just need to do a few touch ups and see what kelly thinks about them. he is just estatic that they will be cheaper!!
i made the invites to go along with my theme of greens and kind of mocked another design of a simple card i saw online..
so i dunno , ill ask a few people what they think about them before going thru with them..

Hi I saw you on weddingplans on LJ. I used 80# linen cardstock from www.paperandmore.com to make my invites. I have the invite and two enclosure cards, one of which is a response postcard. The paper is gorgeous and my invites turned out really nice!! The paper is pretty reasonably priced there too, about the cheapest I found on the net for what I wanted. I bought envelopes at office max, because I could not find cheap envelopes online (they were kind of spendy for the linen ones at paperandmore.com) and they matched the paper pretty well. I used warm white, and it is a very gentle ivory.
Anyways, email me if you have any questions. you can see my invite here: http://www.public.iastate.edu/~sdcady/wedinvite5x72.pdf
although I did change a few things and the flower ended up being a lot clearer by the time I was done.
