All of our guests should have received them by now, so here are our save the dates - handmade by me :).
I did the calligraphy for the addresses on the envelopes and we used the love bird stamps.
I apologize for the bad photography… This is the save the date on my computer screen.
The Wording:
Save-the-Date
For the Wedding of:
Sarah E E M
&
Stevenson H W IV
July *, 2007
Rooms are being held at:
The *** Inn
716.555.5555
The Details:
All of the paper is from the Paper-Source in Georgetown. Colors are Chartreuse and Strawberry.
I bought the tulip stamp at Michael’s Craft Store - there was a little bee on it too, and I stamped the ink around it, so only the tulip transferred.
Mr. Raspberry cut all of the bands that wrap around the invitation using an architectural paper cutter - I insisted that they were perfect :), and he is great at things like that…
After stamping the tulip with gold ink, I used gold embossing power to created the raised images.
