DIY menus w/pics

We haven't decided on our menu selections yet, but I have the template and tested the paper with different layouts.

I got Champagne 107# Metallic Card Stock from Paper and More. You can't really tell from the photos but from far away it looks like an off white paper but close up it's shiny and BEAUTIFUL...i love them!

Here are some photos.

What do you have in mind for your menus?

Here is a high level summary of what I did:

1. Receive templates and start changing them to match my menu
2. Order paper samples from Paper and More
3. Purchase paper cutter from Michaels
4. Once paper is received, cut normal printer paper to the size of the paper desired (the measurements on mine are 5.5 x 8.5 inches).
5. Test print on normal paper - multiple times
6. Print on paper samples

Some tweaks were needed for the printer and the printing settings... so let's make a G2G at your place out of this...LOL
