Save the Date

Picture








I got this business card design from Vista Print.  I got the glossy finish because I want to make it into a magnet.  I figured the glossy finish will keep it a little more durable than a regular matte finish.  Once I receive them from Vista Print I'll post one...so excited!

Picture
So I got my order from Vista Print - Woohoo!!  I've started making these into magnets.  I made postcards thru Vista Print and attached a mini envelope that is going to hold my magnet.

Here's the finished product!

Love these save the dates, especially the brown sparkly mini envelope.  I also bought sparkly cappuccino envelopes to put the postcard in.  I have return address labels that match my save the date magnet too .  It's all about the sparkle!

* I got the envelopes from paperpresentation.com.

Invitations

Picture
These DIY invites are from Michaels.  I want to do something extra to these, maybe add a few rhinestones or something just to give it a personal touch.

This is exactly what I want to do with the rhinestones.  Looks like I had the same idea as someone else.  Love it!

Will You Be My Maid Of Honor?

I wanted to do something special for my MOH and Bridesmaids.  I didn't want to just take them to lunch or call them on the phone and ask them to be part of my special day.  I enjoy scrapbooking, so I thought I would make each of them mini albums identifying the reasons why I want them in my bridal party.  I think they came out pretty cute.  I bought the mini albums from The Christmas Tree Shop.

Woohoo!!  They all said Yes!

To go along with their mini albums, I got tanks from Old Navy and these great rhinestone iron on's from Bella Designs.  The iron on's went on perfect and all my girls were excited to get them!

More T-shirts...

Picture
Obviously this is for my cute little flower girl!  I got the t-shirt from Walmart and I got the iron on from Michael's for $1!  Woohoo!!
Picture
Of course you can't leave the little guy out, especially when his sister is getting the Bridesmaid t-shirt.  I didn't make this t-shirt, I found it on zazzle.com and added the year Dennis and I are getting married. 
Picture
This is for my Jr. Bridesmaid.  I know it doesn't say "Jr." on it, but I think it's perfect for a younger girl.  The t-shirt is from Walmart and the iron on is from Michaels ($1)!

Take out Boxes for Candy Buffet

I bought the pint sized take out boxes from Papermart.com and added scrapbook paper on the sides.  The scrapbook paper is from Michaels.
Picture
I personalized these stickers on zazzle.  They are 1.5 inches.  I then cut squares out of pink and brown cardstock.  The pink is 1.75 inches and the brown is 2 inches.  I'm going to tie the tags onto the takeout boxes with the ribbon I found at Michaels (shown below).

I love my ribbon wands - they are so fun!  I bought ballon sticks online and my ribbon from papermart.com.  The brown ribbon with the flowers is 5/8" and the orange and pink ribbon is 1/4".  We used fishing line to tie it all togather and a brown bead at the end of the stick.  I added a drop of hot glue at the end with the bead, just to make sure it'll stay.
