11/23 Wedding Monograms

I have put together a few more monograms so here they are. . . I had 3 colors to work with and I think the colors came out great!

Photoshare

I just ordered these from vista print for the wedding. . . what a steal. . .really literally a steal they were free and all I had to pay for was shipping :o) I wanted a way to get all the pictures from the guests and I have seen these before so I jumped on the opportunity to have these made up.

So there will be one of these at every seat! Another thing done :o)

11/22 more Wedding Monograms

Here are a few monograms that I have worked on recently :o)

Chinese To-Go Box

Well I was on a roll tonight so I decided to keep on moving and I finished all of the Chinese to-go boxes for the favors. So I had the design down from a while back so all I had to do was print the labels and make them into stickers. So first was the printing which I did on photo paper it gave it a clean and expensive look to it (I highly recommend using it).

Time to cut out the soon to be stickers. . .
and here we have our stickers ready to go. . .

and onto the Chinese box it goes. . .

. . . here it is!

I made about 200 boxes to cover my bases :o)

another project down :o)

Invites Moving Along

Well I am quite the early bird and as soon as I had the opportunity I decided that I wanted to get the main part of my invitations done. I already put together the blue mats with the white envelopment but we just had the invitations I designed using Photoshop printed. So that meant time to start putting everything together. Here I am chugging along. . .

Well anyone who knows me knew I wouldn't do a simple invitation I ended up using 2 mats and crystals :o) It was a lot of work but totally worth it! Here are the fruits of my labor. . .

and there you have it 125 invites! All I have to do now is print up the RSVP's and then put the stickers I have already created to seal them. . . oh yeah and then all that calligraphy as well. . . never a dull moment for a DIY bride :o)

Xyron Stickers

Well I did say I would put up instructions so here they are. . . I made these labels a while ago they are going to seal my invitations.

Once you have your label printed and cut up you will place them on the xyron machine.

Turn , turn , turn

almost through

once its on the other side all you have to do is cut

and there you have it!

it really doesn't get any easier than that! That's a whole lotta stickers. . .

FYI Good Info

I just wanted to let you know that Carla Ten Eyck is available for B-shoots. B-shoots are misunderstood by some people. You don't have to show anything if you don't want to. It is all about you and making you feel good about yourself. . .and for me I want to give the gift to my FI so he knows 10, 20, 30 years from now how lucky he is that he married a hottie. . .LOL jk. She is beyond amazing as if I haven't said it before. She really has a way of making you feel so comfortable that you don't notice things around you and time just melts away. Before we knew it we realized that 3 hours had passed and we still had so many amazing ideas floating around. I have seen my fair share of pictures, being a bride who is all about research. I have never been the cookie cutter type of person. I have never wanted what was average or what was necessarily expected. I didn't want somebody elses pictures with my face plastered on somebody elses pose, if that makes any sense? So match me up with a creative brilliant mind like Carla's and there you have it pure magic!
See fully covered just a beautiful picture

A unique shot of our wedding rings :o)
