The text paper is pearlized, and is set on a truly rich gold card stock, leaving a thin border to frame the handwritten words. That same extra-weight paper goes into our Ecru Classic Crest envelopes as a liner. You can imagine how your guests' eyes will pop when they slide this stunner out into the light of day. David and Dayna told us that every single invited guest commented ---very, very favourably--on this invitation. And why wouldn't they?
