I love it! I wish I knew how to do those menus! I keep trying and they get worse and worse lol

Did you put the border on? or did you attach it to the menu? If that makes any sense lol

It's just a box that I put around the menu to show how it would look when it's all printed & assembled. The colored background will be colored carstock layered with the white cardstock of the menu.

ETA: If you would like me to give you a hand in designing some menus, I can do that and send you a file that you would be able to just print out onto cardstock.

Re: DIY Stuff w/ PICS!! Please Comment!! Invites & Menus

I love your invitations! They look great

quick comments:
1. RSVP - add year to the end of the date
2. Reception card - remove the word 'the' before Fox Hollows
or.. my own suggestion on wording, if you like it

Please continue the celebration for
Christine & Thomas
with Cocktail Hour followed by
Dinner and Dancing
immediately after the ceremony at
Fox Hollow
at 7 o'clock in the evening

3. Menu - capitalize name of the foods, but not the item... example... Beefsteak is okay, but lower case the fresh homemade mozzarella

hope the suggestions are useful! Congrats!

Re: DIY Stuff w/ PICS!! Please Comment!! Invites & Menus

I really love it...

The only thing I would change is on the invite. The graphic in the bottom corner looks cut off. Can you pull that up and maybe make it smaller so that it fits on the invite but in a non-overpowering way?

You did a really good job on these!!
