Invitations are done!! Yay!!! BUT ...Envelopes are not. My printer is still being stupid and printing the watermark and address at the very top of the envelope no matter what I do!
I have resized, moved the text, changed the settings, moved the envelope in the printing tray...you name it, I've done it! And it STILL WONT WORK.
So, I'm going to take a break before I throw the printer out of the window, and update my PJ a little bit.
So...first off, here are a few pics of the finished invites, and the various components. I must say that I like bling, and FH says I may have gone overboard a little with the rhinestones,
but anyone who knows me knows that rhinestones and glitter are a MUST in my everyday life. Blame it on the 27 years I spent dancing in sequiny costumes!
Here is the outside of the invite:
and a close up of the charm:
Opened up:
Sparkly confetti inside:
You can't see it very well, but the pic of Walt and the castle is on an iridescent vellum. SO pretty in the light!!
Actual invite...I've used some photobucket stickers to bring out our respective personalities. Hope you enjoy them.
The actual invitations are lacking said awesome stickers. The wedding guests don't know what they are missing!
You can't see it very well, but the top says, "Don't you know that storybook loves always have a happy ending." It's from the princess bride theme song. Two reasons that we included this.
First, I hold a degree in Creative Writing, and someday, I WILL write that novel I keep talking about!
And second, all our friends say that the novel I should write is the story of FH and I. We have such a Nicholas Sparks-esque story. I will definitely write that story someday!
But, as usual, I digress....here are more invite pics!

Ok so what do you guys think?
