Re: My Projects...

First everything looks amazing!

I had a question about your invites... how/where did you get them printed? I noticed the embossed flourish...did you do that yourself with embossing powder or did a printer do it?

Thank you soooo much!!!!
I printed them on my good ole hp inkjet. Yes I used a rubber stamp, embossing powder and the heat embossing tool to create the design.

Re: My Projects...

Thank you.

I got the letters from Wrap with us in Syosset. They are 4.5' and they were $4.99 each. BEWARE: for some reason they do not carry all of the letters that's why i'm missing the last name initial 'F' but it wasn't such a big deal to me.
Then i got the rhinestones from AC Moore in Glendale. At the time (11/4/08) that particular store had everything on sale so I got the stones for $1.50 for a pk of 144(clear crystal) and pk of 120(blue). They areNOT swarovski but i like them just the same. They did their job I bought so many packs and ONLY used one pack of the clear crystals and one pack of blue and that covered BOTH letters.
