Wedding Scrapbook: Invitation Layouts

3, count ’em, three pages for my wedding invitations.

Seem like overkill?  I don’t think so.  I was determined to find a place for each piece of our invitation.  That’s the entire point of having a wedding scrapbook as opposed to an album.

Yes, I could have tucked all the inserts inside the envelope on the first page.  But I worked hard on them and want people to look at them.  Plus, I don’t want them falling out years down the road and getting lost.

On the first page, I have the invitation itself with the inner envelope.  This is where I ran into the issue of needing pink shimmer stock: the title simply didn’t look right without it.

On the second page, I included the outer envelope showing the return address along with maps I made.  I used two copies of the map so I could show both sides.  I wrote up a little blurb about making our invitations and the fun we had getting response cards in the mail.

The third page takes a bit of explaining.  I kept all the response cards we received (I’m nerdy like that).  I wanted to include some of them, but who to choose?  I decided it would be nice to honor our grandparents.

I included their three response cards and backed them on patterned paper.  I took pictures of each of them walking down the aisle at our wedding and put them opposite their cards.

And just like that, I’m three layouts into the new section!
