musincy Ideal Rock Total Posts: 609 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 6/28/2008	Maybe I'm alone in this, but I prefer the one on the left. I think the width of the ribbon is more appropriate for the size of the card. It would be nice with the edging of the ribbon on the right though.

Definitely, Maybe Ideal Rock Total Posts: 581 Last Post: 5/6/2009 Member Since: 1/12/2009	I am with you musincy. For some reason I prefer the 1st one. It is probably the size like she said.

Elmorton Ideal Rock Total Posts: 3,748 Last Post: 11/21/2009 Member Since: 7/6/2007	Left - I think the one on the right looks better in the photo because it's a crisper contrast, but I think the left will look much better in person because of the size/sheer quality.

Morgie44 Ideal Rock Total Posts: 584 Last Post: 11/19/2009 Member Since: 12/13/2007	I am with Elmorton I like the width of the left one but prefer the contrast of the right. If it were up to me I would do a satin ribbon in the same width as the one on the left, because I love the look of wider ribbon when it is tied, but also the bolder contrast of the colors against each other. ETA I love your color scheme!

EricaR Ideal Rock Total Posts: 2,108 Last Post: 11/17/2009 Member Since: 12/4/2007	I wish there was a way to combine them. I love the width of the ribbon on the left but the edging of the ribbon on the right. If you could find one with edging that was a bit wider I think it would be perfect!

musey Ideal Rock Total Posts: 11,155 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 9/30/2006	Yep, ribbon on the right. At first I thought both looked great, but then I covered one at a time with my hand, then the one on the right was the easy choice.

After doing it "musey style" I concur with those who said the ribbon the right. *----** C-tek

redfaerythinker Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,259 Last Post: 11/19/2009 Member Since: 6/7/2007	I think looking at the whole package, that the one on the left looks better. I think that the sheerness lets the ribbon melt into the background and enhance the entire thing, rather than being it's own entity. Did that make sense at all? _____________________________________________________________________ Finally set a date! March 5, 2011 Megs

mintve Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,200 Last Post: 6/2/2009 Member Since: 10/15/2007	Thanks for all your replies. I took the invite to the post office and b/c of the "bow bump" the postage is more. So, I can either pay more for postage, or use a label like this one. What do you think? Everything Works Out for a Reason

Clairitek Ideal Rock Total Posts: 2,837 Last Post: 11/22/2009 Member Since: 7/21/2008	How much more is the postage? Are you really "tied" (hehe, no pun intended!) to the ribbons? Whats the final cost difference per invite for ribbon + extra postage vs the seal and how many invites are you sending out? I'd say if the budget is tight I would just go for the seal. They will still be really lovely invites! *----** C-tek

missjaxon Cut Rock Total Posts: 374 Last Post: 11/14/2009 Member Since: 10/12/2008	I personally would pay the extra postage and I really like both ribbons, but I would have to say I like the ribbon on the right better as well, for some reason the ribbon on the left reminds me of a gift basket I am not sure why though. haha
