    Oh no, that is not what you need! Maybe a stationery HIB could help?

    If not, I ordered all my card and envelopes from PDA card and craft, they were great.

    Sorry to hear of your rotten luck!

    I did my sister's invitations last year, in a week! Admittedly I didn't do a table plan but did 30 day and 20 evening invites with maps, an info card and gift peom. If you have a good colour printer and just a little imagination you'll easy be able to create your own. I used double-sided gloss post-cards (from Ink2Paper.com - excellent service and price) for the invitiations themselves and bought packs of smaller sized normal postcards from ebay. My sister picked a photo of them to use and I put this on the invitation together with all the relevant information about their day itself. On the otherside, I put information about hotels in the area and taxi firms. I can send you an example if you would like me to?

    Failing that, you could always visit a Hobbycraft. They'll have everything you need to create your own stationery with card & envelope packs, embellishments (stick on flowers/hearts etc), ribbons, rubber stamps, glitter and probaby leaflets with ideas for designs.

    Hope this helps! Don't give up hope. Just think how proud of yourself you'll be when you've created your own stationery! Smiley surprise) You never know, you might love doing this!

    I'm sure a HIB will be around soon, there are some pretty awesome ones here who would bend over backwards to help Smiley smile

    Hope it gets sorted very soon!

    That is really bad service, I am sorry you have had this twice.

    There may be some hibs that can help you out.

    I made my own and got the materials from PDA card and craft who are really helpful.

    Oh no.

    What completely rotten luck! Sorry to hear you've had such a bad experience with your stationery so far.

    I would love to help you, however, I am fully booked for January but do still have space for February if you can't find what you are looking for elsewhere.

    We can still talk designs and I can still create samples for you this month if you are interested. I offer a free, no obligation design service so will help in any way I can.

    Email me if you would like more information. *******@****************.**.**
