Invite help! - Homemade

[Mummy May]

I've gotten the outside of my invites done, and the inserts - but I cannot decide what colour paper to print the insert one. The invites are ivory and I only had white paper to test on but I'm not sure I like that, but I don't think I'm up for ivory either. Would bit be okay with a coloured paper (a pastel coloured one) or should I stick with white or something? xx

You could try Lokta paper, which is a grey-beige paper, and the colour comes from the natural fibres it's made from. The paper itself is textured and I think it's absolutely beautiful! This is the stuff https://www.fredaldous.co.uk/handmade-recycled-lokta-paper-a4-30gsm-20-sheets.html

Otherwise just try things out and see!

What's your colour scheme?

Pale pink and pale green, I've come up with an idea. I'm going to stick a green piece in first then print onto ivory paper a little smaller so it has a green border xx
