Re: DIY Invite Question?

you mean for layering the cards and stuff like that?

I'm not DIYing the invites but maybe using Glue Dots might be the easiest way. You can get them from Michael's. They actually also have glue strips which are great because you can stretch them across more. I used them for the favor tags and they worked perfectly.

i agree with jessie. either glue dots, or maybe even double sided tape - or mounting squares (like the kind you use to put posters on the wall)

didn't think of mounting squares. those might actually works the best

Re: DIY Invite Question?

i made a sample DIY invite a while ago and used this (click here)
I made the samples a few months ago and the invites still look great, so I think ill go with this stuff for sure...its very easy to use too since its in one of those white-out type dispenser things...also if u mess up and need to move the paper it lets u lift it and reposition

i got it at michaels and/or ac moore and bring ur coupons!

Re: DIY Invite Question?

I used the ones that came with the kit (double sided) but I also used glue dots that worked great
