Ok, now what

I received my invitations from Jean M, and they are stunning. The only thing is, they didnt come with tissue paper to stick wherever the tissue paper goes. Insert scratching head smiley here.

I called Jean M , and they said they dont supply tissue paper. Are they supposed to have it, do I have to get it, and where?

Thanks lifesavers!

I don't know where you can buy regular invite paper...maybe a paper store like Paper Presentation, Kate's Paperie or Papyrus? What I did was buy handmade tamarind leaf paper and cut it to size...I think it gives the invites an extra oomph. I bought it at Kate's Paperie, but my invites (from Rexcraft) came with paper. It's plain, white and small...I can mail it to you if you'd like.

Re: Ok, now what

we didnt use it either, my invite person said that with the type of printing we had and the modern looking invite we had that we didnt need it and it would be more of a pain anyway

I her ya on this one BUT its actually a big deal... it keeps the ink from running.. yeah, most likely it wont run, But after you spend that much on invites, its better to be safe than sorry.

(sidenote- we made our own e-party invites on photo paper, and didnt use tissue paper, and they all got smudged. we didnt really care b/c it wasnt anything fancy, and just a backyard BBQ, but it was a lesson learned for the Big one).

Re: Ok, now what

speaking from previous experience....the tissue paper is necessary

we made our std's and when they were mailed out, some people told us that the ink from one side was imprinted on the other...kinda ruined it all for me cause they were really cute

Re: Ok, now what

I guess I am going to be buying some tissue paper. Thanks for all the input ladies, dont know what Id do without ya!

Re: Ok, now what

i think you should be fine without it. If the ink is fully dry it should not run. We printed our e-party invites and nothing happened.
