Wedding Invitations

This weekend my mom, mother-in-law, sister-in-law and I put together our wedding invitations that I have handmade. We had snacks and good conversation, we had a great time. We finished in two hours! Now we just have to finish registering and we can mail out our invitations by the end of theis week! We made 150 invitations.

The top layer was made out of velum paper that I printed on our computer. I bought the velum paper online through envelopemall.com for $8.95 per 100 sheets. I designed the font online, it was really easy and free! Then I ordered a photo of Brad's back with his last name tattooed on his back from our engagement shoot. Each photo was about $1.00. The back of the invitation was a thick card stock of black paper that mom and I embossed with a compass rose stamp. The last step was a velum envelope with a buisness card size with the details regarding our wedding webpage. Voila! Homemade inviations. I love them. The wedding is getting closer and closer....only 102 more days, not that I'm counting or anything!
