These are the wedding invitations I made for my wedding this spring. Thankfully I only had to make 18 because they seemed to get more and more elaborate as I went along.
Recipe:
1) The paper was bought at my local Scrapbook store but are the same colors as CTMH New England Ivy and Baby Pink. (The picture really doesn't show the true color). I used 12" x 12" paper cut in half and then folded at 5", and 10" which made a 6" x 5" card with a 2" flap on the inside. (Although I actually trimmed them so they were more like 5 3/4" x 5" in order to fit in a 6" x 6" envelope).
2) The pink ribbon and the white clear ribbon are from Michaels.
3) The front is stamped in CTMH New England Ivy and embossed with SU Clear Embossing Powder, then colored with Non-SU watercolor pencils and a Non-SU Aqua Painter.

Absolutely beautiful! I'm working on wedding invites for one of my coworker's nieces and I really needed some ideas. I like the pocket on the inside of yours for the reply card and such. Thanks for uploading so many different views - it really helped me get some inspiration for the invites I'm going to be making.
