last tuesday i mailed myself a sample of my invitation to see if it wourl survive the trip (it has a lot of ribbon and i wanted to see if it would get totally squashed ) and also to see how much postage was...
UPDATE....
so six days later (today) i receive the invitation i mailed myself...it was in a white envelope from the post office....my package was damaged
what do i do???? it went in one envelope..the material is pretty thick...should i type 'please do not bend ' on the envelopes? (i rcvd an invite w/this once)
should i use liners?
the envelope edges are really bent...and as a result the invite (in hte black, last pic) is all messed up.these were hand cancelled. i'm so upset............ booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
FH thinks we should hand deliver them...i'm beginning to like his idea....
Do you have more samples? Maybe try a different post office?

Re: GRRRRRR - post office
This is what I am doing for my invites... I downloaded a nice font (monotype corsiva) and I am printing those envelopes myself... I think most of us are afraid that the invites will 'get lost' somewhere in the post office.. ugh ugh ugh... maybe give it few more days.. let's hope your invite gets to you

i've had more probs with the smaller branches which is why i thought the bigger the better. but it could be in this case that it's WAY too busy. Oy.
