Invites again

alyssa324

sorry I need so much help but these invites are really bugging me. So here it goes. I just threw these together with stuff I had at home. So the colors or cutting isnt perfect but at least you get the idea. Which style do you like better

1.


(pocketfold)

2.


(not matted)

3.


(matted)

#1:
With the way the belly band is set, you see your name but not your FI, which makes your name really sticks out.  And the pocketfold makes it look a lot more polished, imo.

The belly band looks way better on the solid color.  It looks like too much going on when its against the wording.

I like # 1 the best because it makes the ribbon stand out and doesn't look too cluttered but I think you need something a little more ...

maybe a square peice that goes over the ribbon with your monogram or "your invited"  or something ...

what about doing the blue color ribbon under the lace on top of the red pocketfold, the brown doesn't stand out very much IMO but that might be the look you are going for...

just some suggestions!! HTH

I like 3.  It seems like it suits you and your wedding...a pocketfold seems too formal IMO.  Although, I agree it is a little busy and only shows your name.  Is there a way to move it or the font so both names or neither show?  I do love the burlap and lace though, very cute.

i had a hard time choosing between 1 & 3. Although I'm wondering what it would look like with just the burlap.. and even maybe a little thinner...

i agree with jennuinne that the pocketfold is really nice, it is a bit formal. i do love it though.

oh I didn't realize that was burlap! That is cool that it goes with your theme!

this kind of bugs me too, so I think the belly band doesn't really work the way 2&3 are now. I did choose #3 though because it sounds like that would fit you better based on what the other girls are saying, but maybe your names need to be moved or something.
