Melanie's Fall Invitations

These invitations are a great alternative to a pocketfold, as the ribbon holds all of your inserts in place! This invitation includes a cream invitation with a cranberry and bronze double mat, and a 1 1/2 inch cranberry ribbon.

A Dream Becomes a Reality

Whenever someone would ask me what I wanted to be when I grow up, I really never know what to say...at least I didn't know until now. I have always enjoyed being crafty and putting my creative juices to work, but never truly realized how much I love it. That is, until I started planning my own wedding late in 2007. I scoured the knot and came across many incredible ideas, and tons of inspiration.

First things first...I came across a site with pocketfold invitations and I immediately fell in love. I convinced myself that their price tag of over $2000 was just too much and looked for other invitations. I kept coming back to those pockets. I finally decided that I would make them myself for more than half that cost! It was a learning process, but I have come a long way since then. I work primarily in photoshop and could sit here all day and never get bored of it...that to me is when you know you have a true passion....when you really really can say you love what you do and you enjoy every minute of it! After making my invitations I knew I wanted everything to tie together and have a common theme, so I then created and handmade my programs, Out of town welcome packets, favors and tags,
