Ooh pretty, will she still be one of your oldest and closest friends once she's sat making the whole lot for you though?

I hated the world once i'd finished making all of my invites and those at least were for me!!

She has already done them all, and the thank you cards!!! She loves all that sort of thing luckily far more patience than me!

The first batch are being sent out this week

LOL @ Cas - I felt the same way after sewing seed beads on 80 of the blighters!!

PM - your invites are stunning - really individual, and I love the handmade look - always looks very expensive!!

They are so lovely. I made all mine and was really fed up by the time they were all finished.

Glad to hear i'm not the only one who was thoroughly sick of the sight of my invites by the time they were all made. I think you've definitely gone the right way having a friend make them, all the pleasure of hand made cards and none of the pain of putting them together!!

I'm desperate to send mine out now but I guess it's still too early for a September wedding

yeah, i'm just impatient

I probably will send them out a bit early though as we currently want to invite more people than the venue allow so we're hoping for a few rejections early on (just not too many I hope!)
