Completed Invites!!!

September 5th, 2006 @ 11:10 am by Mrs. Butterfly

Here they are!!! As promised, here are the pictures of my invitations and the 2 day process of putting them together.

First, run the tape along the back of the invite panel.

Stick the inserts into the pocket based on size. This is what it looked like completed.

Adrienne from Custom Programs sent over extras of everything! When you order or buy the materials for your invitations, make sure you order at least 15% to 20% extra on everything. I thought I only needed 50 invitations, so I ordered 60. It turns out I needed about 55 (more if I have to move onto my B list). And of course, I did make a handful of mistakes. If Adrienne hadn’t sent over extras on top of the 60, I would be totally screwed.

Anyway, there they are. I’m so proud…..*tear*

What fantastic instructions!!! I can easily adapt them to my own invitation assembly.

Where did you get that fany tape gun (and the tape that goes in it)? I was planning on using scrapbooking/crafting tape squares (they’re about 1/2″ square) but that would take for. ev. er.!
