Re: my invites...are finally done (pics)

seriously...thank you everyone!!!!

i had been slaving over these for soooooo long (the box/material/ribbon part more so than the invite components) so the kind words are definately appreciated

if anyone wants info on how to do this for a future project (or 09 brides)...definately let me know...id gladly break it down!

i forget hahaha. i definately have been doing it over the june-aug time frame (not daily obv).

june - cutting the backing squares, fabric a, fabric b
july - attaching fabric a and b to backs
aug - cutting ribbon and attaching ribbon to fabric back a and b...then attaching all into both sides of the box.

at least by sept 26th but i probably cant wait that long...so maybe around the shower (but then ill have the slow rsvp problem grrrr)

Well I do know that everytime we have come over the past few months you have them laying out and being worked on. Seriously you should like start an invite making business with jess. LOL it can be part of our pretend wedding planning business we want to start when we win the lotto. LOL.

btw: Ash's favors at the shower were little whoopie pies. Huge hit and soooo yummy. Im going to suggest them to Nic for her wedding. They were very Martha!

ETA: I totally just wrote this thinking it was a response to your email- not on liweddings... LOL.
