Making Thank You's for my Bridal Shower and DIY programs

So many folks are traveling to attend my shower that I thought I would make little favors to thanks them, and give my BMs a small gift. I got these favor bags off the web, love the website!, and I'm going to ATTEMPT to make the gourmet decorated cake cookies you see all the time.

got a DIY kit to test drive making programs from the same website. i'll report back how EASY or not easy the kit is to work with. but the picture looks cool. mine will be light blue with a deeper blue ribbon. i also like the ones at the bottom but wonder how difficult it is to sew together programs.

So pretty Christian! Your wedding is going to be so elegant!

Edited to add:
They had these cute matchbooks for 2.95 each! I think I can make them myself- I like that they say a 'perfect match' since we met on Match.com

i love the ribbon programs and i am thinking of making them for myself - i don't know hard they are to sew together though

Am470 - the oheka bride made something similar - you might want to ask her

also - where do you get that ribbon from - the directions to make those programs were in the Martha Stewart - good things- i have it at home if you need the directions

the main part of the program is actually made from a 4 inch wide ribbon according to the directions - i think it makes it more sturdy then fabric -

then there is a 1/4 inch ribbon to tie it closed
