Black and Gold wallet style wedding invitation

September, 7th 2009

	Create these stylish designer invites in just a few easy steps. You will need: A6 wallet style blank invitation in cream Flower embossed paper in gold/black Dark brown card Cream stardream pearlescent paper Adhesive tape runner or glue stick
	Using a paper trimmer or guillotine (or The Wedding Crafter's cutting service) cut out the following for each invitation: Brown card 147mm x 105mm Brown card 140mm x 98mm Brown card 124mm x 85mm Flower paper 147mm x 105mm Flower paper 140 x 98mm
	Use Microsoft Word or other PC package to create your text for the invitation and RSVP cards. It is usually easier to print these onto A4 paper and then trim to size. The measurements required are: 126mm x 86mm for the RSVP 116mm x 79mm for the invitation
	To decorate the outer flap, cover the flap with glue and lay carefully onto the reverse of the flower paper, aligning the fold of the flap with the edge of the paper.
	Cut around the flap using a sharp craft knife or scissors
	Glue together the layers of the invitation and RSVP cards taking care to centre each layer so that the borders are even. For the invitation the layers are: Brown card 147mm x 105mm Flower paper 147mm x 105mm Brown card 124mm x 85mm Pearlescent insert For the RSVP card: Brown card 140mm x 98mm Flower paper 140 x 98mm Pearlescent insert
	Glue the invitation card to the centre panel of the wallet and tuck the RSVP card into the pocket.
