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

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.
