T&B INVITES

After posting the fiesta wedding invite I thought it might be a good idea to put up some pictures of my own wedding invites. I've been a bit obsessed with birds for a wee while and they some how managed to sneak on here... And then proceeded to permeate the whole wedding!
This is a two piece (double sided) design that was tied together with cotton and a circle rsvp card.
I used a fiskars embossing corner punch to do the edges and make it a little more special.



I also decided to make my own envelopes (New Zealand seems to have a very limited variety of envelopes). I was hooked on the string and button styled envelopes and could only ever find them in a long skinny size or large A4. It's a good thing weddings are a one–off deal... I had very sore hands after all the punching, cutting and tying :)

  9. Your invites are the best I have seen, not that this single girl has been searching for wedding invites, but I love seeing all the design that goes into them.

    And I've just got to say, as I've said before, I have to go to New Zealand. All the bloggers from New Zealand are some of my favorite. Love all of your style. I think I would fit in there just fine.
