awesome job

one question........

what's the green machine for?

its called the xyron 900 it makes stickers, magnets and laminates (i have the same thing and its amazing for diy things!)

Lisa- your invites are beautiful!!!!!! Great job!!!!!!

ok what did you use it for on the invites?

I used the xyron to put the layers of paper together, silver layer and black layer and the actual invite and also to secure it all to teh pocketfold. The machine pretty much truns everything into a sticker.

Re: DIY Invites are done!!!

I did everything myself. At first I had them printed and cut at staples. The printing was so light and the cutting was note even so I re- did everything. To begin you should go to paper presentation in the city and get some paper to use for samples to give your self an idea of what you would want to do. If you need any help feel free to let me know.
