Another Gocco Project
November 6th, 2007 @ 2:43 pm by Mrs. Peppermint
When Mr. P & I decided to get the Gocco (or shall I say: when I convinced him that I needed to have a Gocco), I promised that I would use it all the time. And since I’m a girl of my word, I just HAD to find another excuse.Meet my bridesmaids luncheon invites:
They were super easy to make. I simply used the Gocco approved pen that came with it to make a design that fit on a single screen. I’m pretty happy with the results. To cute it up a little, I bought some fancy paper at Paper Source that I cut into envelope liners.
Here they are, ready to be mailed… At the post office, however, I was told they needed an extra 17 cents (plus the 39 cents I had already put on) because they were square envelopes–has that happened to anyone else? Postage these days!)

SO cute! I know, its such a bummer about the square envelopes huh? But if it makes you feel any better, its been this way with square envelopes (extra postage) since the beginning of time 
I love the cupcakes! So cute!
All these Gocco projects make me really want to buy one… I’ve resisted for so long, but I think I might have to cave. 
Soooo cute! You are so talented Miss Peppermint. Yeah~ I wanted to do square envelopes at first, then I found out about the postage too.
Oh la la, very cute! Did you have to get the big horned sheep extra postage? I made adorable (and square) invites for my sister’s bridal shower and then had to add some big ugly sheep stamps to the front. It was so sad
love it! Is it bad that I even want to make my own bridal shower invitation with the gocco!
It’s official, I need a gocco.
Very cute.
I have had postage issues. When I mailed my wedding invitations, because they were longer and I addressed them across the short width as opposed to the long width my postage cost shot up to $0.98 each! I had 150 invitations to send out. Needless to say I was not happy. If I had addressed them across the long width, it would have been around $0.50 each. Not a huge amount of money, but I almost lost it at the post office. I had already ordered custom stamps and now had to find extra postage to cram on the envelope.
They are beyond adorable!!!! Looove them…
how adorable! did you do the sprinkles and smiley face by hand with a pen or with the gocco?
futuremrsrose - me too! lol, i’ve been on the fence but now i came up with my 3 ways i’d use it so i can get one now…if i can stomach to price that is.
is there a link to that cupcake paper? *loves*
Yup I think it’s because they have to process them by hand or something. Super cute!
I’m having Gocco envy - those are ADORABLE!
