Wedding Invites

I was cursing myself for undertaking creating my own invites, but I did have a bit of time on my hands and I did work for a design shop for 4 years, so I better be able to create my own invites, AND I DID!!! They are printing as we speak and my lovely fiance cut them all day today and this weekend they will be assembled, awaiting the arrival of the final pieces, but here is a sneak peak....original design thanks to my minimal illustrator skills and the wonderful font help of my ex-DK co-workers, my love for peacock feathers which has apparently taken over the wedding scheme world, and my love for all things art deco/Great Gatsby (the official theme of my wedding)...

Pocketfold invites, A-7 and 4 Bar envelopes in Gold Leaf from http://www.paperandmore.com/
