Default Color Advice
Ok, I am trying to narrow down my choices for our wedding invites. The LSS owner does custom wedding invites and we and stuck a deal .... now I just need to start making decisions on colors and such. We don't really have a "theme" and all Bill has told me is that he wants blue and I want to be able to have sunflowers. Of course I want to combine the two without it looking too county (no gingham!).

This look on the left - the square one - is how our invites will be laid out:


So I need to choose Colors .... Blue will be the color of the pocket.
I think this iris blue is the one we like the best:


But which orange shade do you think would look best (this would be the thin color accent behind the invitation and the accent on the front)
Pumpkin:

Stardream Gold:

or Amber:


What do you think???

IMO, either stardream or amber. The orange looks way to bright and a bit "clownish" with that rich blue.

I think the gold would look best, but the creamy one would look nice too...

I like the Amber, but the Gold would work too. Not a fan of the pumpkin.

I like the Gold one or Amber. Can't wait to see how they turn out....'cause I know I better be getting one in the mail!

I know I won't be able to make it to the wedding, but I still want to send you all a gift!!
