I 'borrowed' several HWC invites (mostly Diane's) and made one for my Host to hand out. Please review and let me know if I need to make any changes. Thanks!

It looks great to me except I can't see the pictures of the HWC items at the bottom? I'm not sure if it's just me??? Thanks for sharing it!!!
 
OK---It must just be me because I opened it again and now they are there! :blushing:
 
Linda just by glancing it, I think some of the font is too hard to read which will make some not even read it. Just my 2 cents....

Thanks Kristi. I'll work on it some more. Do you think it's too wordy? Should I simplify it? I'm at a cross-roads of explaining why we are doing a fundraiser and where the money is going (heart-tug) instead if just saying 'come to my fundraiser'.....I'm over thinking this!!!!
 
I think it is just fine, those who want to will read the others can just scan. I agree about the font, too hard to read. Nice hearing your voice the other day....Talk to you soon :)
