All things Paper
So, I'm designing our invites myself. I bought a dahlia graphic off Etsy (I LOVE etsy!) and I'm using it somewhat liberally. The invites will be pocketfolds, in a sparkly fuchsia/watermelon color. The insides. . .
Invitations
I've designed these with Photoshop & Publisher. Templates are available under "Templates" here in my bio. Please excuse the ugly background. I promise - NOT my house.
Inserts
These are double sided. First photo is the front - one for Travel & Accomodations, and one for Directions.
The back has "Other Activities" and includes a list of things we're putting together, and "Turn-by-turn" directions to the hotel & the wedding.
Menus
The food is on the "Food" page, strangely enough, and the menu template in the templates section, but it is made of paper. Here's the mockup. I need to do a better job with the ribbon bows, though.
Table Numbers and Random Signage
The table numbers are two sided - the numeral on one side, and spelled out on the other. 5 inches square.
Save-The-Dates!
The card on the back is from Vistaprint. Just a one-sided postcard. Got those for free - just paid shipping. The yellow block at the bottom left is a magnet, also free from Vistaprint - paid shipping. The two white squares are actually round stickers on a white square backing (they take FOREVER to cut out) that I printed at home. The stickers were $6 for 1000 at Office Depot. And, it's all held together with removeable glue dots.
