I started with the theme of vintage meeting the whimsical side of paper airplanes, since my finance is a pilot it is appropriate. I folded a paper airplane out of book pages and highlighted the outline of the plane in black sharpie and glued in to the front of my neutral colored card stock for the old vintage feel. I drew a squiggle outside of the airplane to give the impression it was flying. Inside the card, on the left, I took a piece of map card stock cut it down to size and glued that down.
For the Invitation part I made it myself on my pages application (Word document for Mac) and printed it out on card stock I got at habitat for humanity. On the right side I took a 12x12 navy card stock cut it in half folded it to make a pocked and folded it down again to make a flap. I cut out a half moon shape out of my book pages and rolled it up into a flower, that is held together by a sewing pin, which is hiding in the flap glued down (so no one gets hurt). I made the pocket of my invite by stapling it on the sides. In the inside of my pocket is the Rsvp postcard and the accommodation card with website address, which I also made on pages. That's my invite. I hope you enjoy!
