Camel wedding invitations with brown grosgrain belt and brass buckle
We loved this classic look put together by Instyle magazine and used the same elements to create these gorgeous belted wedding invitations. The heavyweight Camel background card was layered with a printed white overlay and wrapped with a grosgrain belt, which was embellished with a solid brass buckle. It’s a rich looking invitation at an affordable price for only 98¢ each, including envelope from Formal-Invitations.com.

As a bonus, the Onyx black heavyweight background card, white printable overlay and white envelope are all made from 100% post consumer fibers, making it a beautiful and earth-friendly choice.
