Completed stuff with pictures for invites

Original post by Celest

Okay I haven’t been posting that much the last couple of days. But I have a really good reason.

I HAVE FINALLY COMPLETED SOME STUFF. I like planning stuff, I like organization but to be honest the wedding todo’s list was listed but not worked on b/c I had so much other to work on but finally I was like ohh snap.. it is soon I better get a move on... lol

I have been burning the midnight oil putting together invites. These past two weeks I have:

- Found & ordered flower girl dresses
- ordered & received my favors
- Made sure mom’s got their dresses
- Made sure dad’s are in their tux
- Designed my activity books
- MOH sis got her some fierce shoes.
- Ordered & designed my custom stamps & had them shipped super fast..
- Finished my invite design
- Printed, cut & pasted those bad boys together, which I must say doing your own invites is a MAJOR production. Several nights until 4 in the morning doing it
- Scheduled meeting with the Church musician, DJ, & makeup artist


Okay I am gloating, But I was soo depressed the couple of weeks before with everything so this is a breakthrough

Now for the bad part the BM is MIA.. no contact or calls in over 3 weeks. He is out in cali & now we are really worried for him. He has no voicemail at the house so we try & try to contact him but to no avail. I really really hope he is ok,.. but if he is I am going to kill him.. if that makes sense. My first concern is for his safety & making sure he is ok.

So here are the pics..





It is so sad the first thing I want to do when i do something good that is wedding ish is come on here & talk with you girls

okay here is some more. I tried to block out personal data. may have to pull it if people that aren't supposed to see do.

Envelope design




Complete set


All Apart


I have to write down everything I did. But it sure was a pain, I did the design, printing & all the cuts on the paper, matted down all myself. It is definitely a big job!!

but I love graphic design so it was a passion for me.

I hope you like too

beautiful invites! yours are one of the best that i have seen.



OMG you now have a friend for LIFE. May ego is weak but loves compliments.. haha. No seriously thank you. i truly appreciate that.

I spent so long just planning on measuring & doing mockup, I wondered if the end result would suck. Monday night, I had used double sided tape to mat down the paper. To my dismay i found out Tuesday that the tape didn't really hold the metallic mat to the pocketfold together, so I had to run to the store & but more supplies & redo that part of the invite, (Oh & matting the linen paper on the backing worked with the metallic but you go through a ton more tape than you think you would)
So thank you again I so completely appreciate the compliment.

If anyone is dong these themselves & want to know what to look out for let me know while it is all fresh in my head!

The invotes are fabulous. How did yuo get persnoalized stamps? I love that idea!

Congrats on getting so much done



thank you. I really wasn't before, & was just in a funk.. then whoosh. I got some stuff done. I am really worried about the BM though now.

Oh the stamps, I designed myself & uploaded into Zazzle. They were great. i really liked the quality of the stamp. let me know if you need help there. maybe I can find a coupon.



Sorry for all the typos in my original message...boy I didn't even see them until today.

I just checked out Zazzle. Loving it! Thank you for the info. I'll FM for sure if I need help. A coupon if you find one would be great

Thanks again!
