A different save the date idea
FH and I went to AC MOORE and saw these save the date bookmarks- you make them yourself on the computer but they are the cards, the tassles, and the envelopes too-they could/would read something like
Your'e Booked!
and all the necessary info
I like them but FH thinks that the magnets are better because people can see it all the time wheras the bookmarks people may stick in a draw and forget about it
I liked them because they were different than what I have seen...they are cute and they fit i am a language arts/reading teacher
WHat's your opinion? What do you like better?
we didnt buy them but he said if i really like them we could!

Re: A different save the date idea
If someone sent me a bookmark save the date I would post it on my fridge - so I say go for it! After the date it may be used or put away somewhere. Cute idea!!

Re: A different save the date idea
Why not get the bookmarks and hot glue magnets on the back, this way people can choose what to do with them, and it will big a nice big comprimise with you and FH, you'll both get what you want!!

The bookmarks are a cute idea, they are different. We did save the date pens. they were a big hit and everyone uses them to write with.

Re: A different save the date idea
That's what I did...
Sonic Stef did the design, and I stamped the designs on the bookmarks. I used embossing powder and a heat gun so the lettering looks raised. They came out great!

Re: A different save the date idea
I like the idea about putting the magnets on the back of the bookmarks...if not people can always put them on their fridge anyway. If reading is important to you then I say go for it. I think it's cute and a different idea.
