AW: My DIY Starfish Invitations :)

Sooooo once again, my mom has exceeded all expectations and surprised me with these invitations.  We knew we wanted to continue the starfish theme from the STD's to the invites and decor at the reception, but I had no idea they would turn out this good.  Yeaaaaa I'm bragging on mom a bit but she is truly amazing :)  I couldn't have done this without her.

Our colors are teal & tangerine with white & khaki accents.  Let me know what you think......

(The invitations will be placed inside a light khaki colored envelope)



The tangerine band slides off the "folder"




And here it is.......




On each of the cards to the right, is a small starfish at the bottom.....so cute!

    Om my gosh, I LOVE them! You're mom is certainly talented! These look better than alot of the ones I've seen for sale online. I'm going with some I found on Etsy, but you've got me thinking I should hire your Mom instead ;)

    Love them!  FI is currently working on our starfish magnets for our welcome bags.  I really think they DIY projects are worth it (for money and for getting exactly what you want), but they take so much time.
