Elegant Fall Colored Wedding Invitations

I looked at a lot of wedding invitations and fell in love with several designs, yet nothing was ever exactly as I wanted, or if it was, the price was way too much for our budget. At this point, we chose to create our own wedding invitations using a kit from an amazing paper company as our base, and then adding to it to create an elegant invitation with a touch more pizazz that would truly set the tone for our special day.

Step 1 Materials

-"Carmine" Invitation Kit purchased from http://www.invitesite.com The paper in this kit included recycled card stock, and gorgeous red mulberry with mango leaves decorative paper which I loved. Elements were: 8.5x11" Husk Card stock, 6.25 x 12.5" Husk Card Stock, Starfold Wrap Mulberry paper, Exterior 6.5x6.5" Envelopes, A4 RSVP Envelopes, Matching Pre-Cut Envelope liners for RSVP and Main Envelopes, and Red Taffeda Ribbon (Which I did not use for this project.)

-"Java" Colored 12x12 Card Stock from Bazzill Basics

-"Brown" colored single sided 5/8" satin ribbon from http://www.jkmribbon.com

-Ink for your printer

-Fonts were purchased off of http://www.veer.com We used "Pabst" and "Declaration"

-Images were purchased off of http://www.istockphoto.com We made sure to use vector images which allowed us to utilize different elements. Search terms we used were "Vector, Floral, Grunge".

-Stamps created on http://www.zazzle.com
