I was planning on spending $200 for a lady to do the envelopes for my invitations... Well, when I heard she just uses the computer I said ' Let me try'... I DID IT!!!!! They Came out perfectly!!! I am so excited...
All you have to do is open up a Word Doc and do a mail merge. You have to play around with it a little bit, but I figured that if I can save myself some money it would be a GREAT THING>...
If I get a chance I will see if I can post a pic..or FM me and I can email it to you....

Re: SO EXCITED!!! I DID IT MYSELF!!!
I have no idea how to get a picture on the website.. Can someone help me??? You would think I would be able to do this by now....
ANYWAY.. It is so easy. I have all my names and addresses in an excel file. Then you use the mail merge feature on Microsoft word and Presto, and about 2 hours you are done and you saved yourself atleast $200!!! Noone would ever know you did it.. ALSO,
the reality of it is.... People throw out the envelopes as soon as they get them and keep the inner envelope. You want it to look nice, but that doesn't mean it has to cost a fortune to do it!!!
If you want me to email the sample, send me your email ...
