DIY Recycled, Screenprinted, Luggage tag wedding announcements

So, the wedding has come and gone, and it was beautiful, but I didn't want to let these go undocumented.  Our wedding announcements were a DIY project.  I must've come up with seven or eight different designs before I had my Eureka! moment.  This was one of the best projects I've ever done.  I designed the announcements and luggage tags on AI, formatted them to fit on an 11x17 piece of cardstock (so I could get more bang for my buck at the screenprinters - they charge per page, no matter what size), and helped actually screen them.  All in all, each announcement ended up being about .50 plus postage.  I loved these little announcements.

Sister getting married, design time!

My little sister is engaged.  AH!.  She has been dating one of my best friends for awhile now and they decided they're getting married in December of January, soon!  They've got nothing decided yet except for the colors:  Chartreuse, teal/aqua, cream, and slate gray.  Lucky me (seriously, I love this stuff), they asked me to design their invites.  This is what I've come up with SO far.
