oh god i know, i measured every little side and made sure that each side was perfect even. Since mine had 3 layers of cardstock for example the bottom one as you can see its the edge so only a certain amount shows, i measured every single one so they can all have the exact amount showing.

ItalianBride, I'm sorry if I hijacked your thread.
That's what I mean...that's the right way to do it...you want to make sure you're consistent, and that takes time. It sounds like your mom worked the same way you did, which helped because if yo have someone helping you that say looks to take shortcuts, then that's added stress..ha.
well the invites themselves we finished in 3 days. Then it was the ribbon and rhinestones we had to do. Then the boxes. It really wasnt bad though hahahaha, the invites we only did about 2 hours a day since we'd get home late from work and it was done in 3 days.

That's the thing, it sounds like a long process. I'm sure though once you get going, you get on a roll and get a rhythm going. Well, now that's all done and the satisfaction comes as people start to respond and compliment them...enjoy!!
