Holy frozen monkey balls! Silverback gorillas to be specific. Our computer virus is still there, but for the past 2 days our internet was down? What the hell? It’s always something new every friggin week! *le sigh* I HAVE HAD IT UP TO HERE (I know you can’t see here but I’m holding my hand up pretty high) AND I AM probably not going to do anything about it cause I’m a lazy bitch. haha…

Anyways I have a treat for you ladies today. If you haven’t noticed, I have not posted up anything on thank you cards. That’s because I haven’t done them and it’s now been almost 2 months since the wedding. How late is too late? I have researched this question. My sister went to her friend’s wedding and got a thank you card 3 months later and she thought it was a little late.

I searched online and someone got married and hadn’t found the time to do thank you cards till a year later and was wondering if she should still send them out. HELLS YEAH HEIFER! These people took the time out and saved this date on their calendar to spend that special day with you. If you don’t send a thank you card and acknowledge your guests’ generosity, they will think that you’re an ingrate. Me, personally, I couldn’t care less if people didn’t send me a thank you card but you can be sure if I ever got into a tiff with the girl later on I will bring that shit up in a heart beat. I can picture it now:

The bride who never sent me a thank you card: I can’t believe you told my husband that I was pregnant! I told you I wanted it to be a surprise!!!
Me: OH YEAH?! Well YOU never sent me a thank you card!!!!!!!!!!!

I would totally win that one. Hands down!

Ok so the point is, no matter how late it is, just send it out…yes, yes even if it’s a year late!

I just bought my thank you card supplies and yes it’s another DIY! Woohoo! Someone give me a high five! Anyone? Anyone? Hello? ….or don’t. Whatever.

So I went to Paper Presentation on Tuesday with Anna and bought 100 plain folding cards and 100 plain envelopes (4bar, I think the color was Duchess Felt? Anna help me out here).

Here’s the plain card and then….

…Bam! I stamped the front with my medium sized peony stamp (With Flash)

Without Flash

Then I stamped it again with my small peony stamp.

Then I stamped it with a wam bam THANK YOU ma’am.

And last, I stamped the envelope with the medium peony stamp in chocolate ink.

Somebody spank me!!
Anyone? Anyone? Hello?
…or don’t. I’ll ask the hubs to.

Question to you gals, I know it’s not wedding protocol but is it really such a big deal if print the cards instead of writing them? I hate writing by hand! I mean do you think it’s that big of a deal to the guest? I haven’t followed everything by the book. I am not a protocol type of girl when it comes to certain things. After Mr. Ladybug and I got home from the wedding we threw out the top cake layer and said eff it. Who wants to eat cake a year old? We’ll just buy cupcakes or something. I can hear some of you gasping in horror. Hahaha… I can actually picture some of your faces and it’s making me laugh. Hahaha…
