Hi, It depends how you want your invitations to look in the end, if for

120mm x 120mm white inserts ( one with invite details, one with map) 20p eachOne
120mm x 100mm white insert (taxi info)15p eachOne 120mm x 80mm white insert
(R.S.V.P)10p eachOne monogram card approximately 50mm x 50mm 8p eachWe cut all
of the card ourselves so you can pick and choose the sizes to suit you. Please
do not hesitate to contact us again if you have any further questions. Kind

If I did it it this way I would use my Monogram to close the invite.
I like the Style below, I'd use silver Organza ribbon and add my Monogram. I like this style because the cut point reveals the names which I think is a nice touch.
for the style below, again I'd use my Monogram and have like an envelope point instead of the hearts
The main Card would be Sapphire then the invite printed on white and matted on silver. Same style to the Pocket Invites that I want to do for Wedding and Reception guests.
I also would like to do them DIY and feel confident that I could draw up a template for these invites.
Or I could just do ordinary card style, heres a couple ideas I had been talking to madhattermillie over on Ukscrappers here is her idea as I put up a post asking for suggestions -

salutations £20.95 p61 cheers and wishes £16.95 p63 Ink wise, i would recommend
using a blank roller (£5.50 p83) filled with versamark refill (£3.25 p82) and
silver embossing powder (£3.75 p82) Card wise, i would say make/buy your own
card blanks and the purpose made ones tend be a bit stronger. There is a
brilliant blue ink available £4.50, Matching cardstock, A4 pack of 24 £4.50 and
the jumbo ink cartridge for the roller stamp is also available in this colour
for £6.25. i currently have a 10% discount until the order is sent on 24th
august, p&p £3.50 hope that helps! joxAnd here are some of the ideas I came up from her suggestion -
Using a roller on white card but rolling once to create a blue design let it dry then roll again but so I get the silver and emboss silver over lapping but so the blue still shows. Adding blue butterflys 3d effect and adding little silver rhinestones and the word your invited at the bottom.
Another idea, same principle using a roller on Blue card but rolling once to create a white design let it dry then roll again but so i get the silver and emboss silver over lapping but so the white still shows. again adding white butterflys 3d effect and adding little silver rhinestones and the word your invited at the bottom.
Blue as main card colour, a flourish swirl type roller going across vertical or horizontle depending on card shape so then use silver embossing powder so the design shows and then with a small butterfly punch cut some white card and use the little butterflys glue them to the vine giveing a kinda 3d effect and then the your invited in silver to so it shows up.
Madhattermillie has offered to make up some samples so I can have a look before buying the bits. Also Paula on Wedding Announcers Forum is putting together an idea for me too. Can't wait to see the results as I have a theory as you can see of what I want but it may be to expensive to do it my way.
