I bought these invitations for my fall themed baby shower and loved the golds and fall look. On the computer they looked great and well contrasted but they did not print that way. The background is nearly white and overall the colors are very bland and light with very little contrast. The gold does not look like the shiny gold it shows on the computer, and the darker leaves on the back are printed very light. The cardstock itself is nice and thick and the envelopes are nice though. Also shipping was quicker than expected.
