Okay, ladies ... so I made these myself so please tell me if there is anyhing I should change. The invite says:

JUST LIKE A PAGE OUT OT A FAIRY TALE
THE STORYBOOK ROMANCE COMES TRUE…

our names

TOGETHER WITH OUR PARENTS
REQUEST THE HONOUR OF YOUR PRESENCE
AT OUR WEDDING CELEBRATION

FRIDAY, THE THIRD OF JULY
TWO THOUSAND AND NINE
AT SIX THIRTY IN THE EVENING

LEONARD’S OF GREAT NECK
555 NORTHERN BOULEVARD
GREAT NECK, NEW YORK

RECEPTION IMMEDIATELY TO FOLLOW

Does that sound good? I also embossed the pic, but can you see it? I am not sure if its worth doing on the invites if you cant see it.

they are perfect ! where did u get paper and what printer did u use?

thanks! I was worried about the wording ...

I bought the HP 1215 Laserjet printer (we needed one anyway) - its freaking awesome! I love it Cheapest Ive seen it is 199 at office depot

and the paper is the stardream collection - I used stardream opal and gold and I bought it at paper presentation (W18th st) for the sample, but will probably order from anchor paper.com

Yes I did it by hand ... I have the tools at home and just pressed it down. I would try it one and see how it comes out

Re: My sample invites!

The invites look great but I do want to point out a typo in the first line---Shouldn't it be PAGE OUT OF
not PAGE OUT OT.

Hopefully you didn't get too far in printing them...

Re: My sample invites!

first line says 'OT' instead of 'OF' and i cant tell if you did that on the invites too

also, 'comes true' isnt on the invites but it is in your text
