You are cordially invited...what they'll look like!

Alright, so my last post was an example of the kinds of invitations I was looking for. But then I saw an ad in a bridal magazine with these in them:

And I absolutely died. I must have torn edges! I absolutely must. So I made an appointment with a press here in Lexington that I swore up and down had them in their books at the bridal show I went to in January. Took my friend to the appointment and... the girl there had absolutely NO idea what I was talking about at all. I know a vendor at the show had them, I just have to figure out who! So that's what I'm looking for. Letterpress, torn edges. Combined with these:

And last, but certainly not least, wrapped in these:

Yeah, I'm making 100 of these wraps by myself. Should be a trip. Also, it shouldn't be that hard. I'm really, really hoping to find a lace with a pretty simple repeating pattern. That way I won't cut off any of the design! Simple and yet totally sweet! Lots of texture.

What do you think? Any suggestions about what I should wrap around the outside? I like the look of ribbon, but might want something a little more creative.
