Wedding Blog
When it came time to do our wedding programs, I took the easy way out. I had Kristen from Twin Ravens Press letterpress the covers which saved a bunch of time. For the inner pages, I used Microsoft Word to write out the program and printed them on metallic champagne paper using our Canon Pixma. It’s a pretty basic program, I sort of lost energy to go the distance, but I did stick to my guns when it came to sewing them together. I had always been inspired by stationery with thread binding, so I hopped on my sewing machine and got to work!
I’ll post pictures of the inner pages after the wedding, please excuse my frankness!
Anyone else take the sewing route with their stationery?!

These are wicked gorgeous!
They look beautiful, and I can’t wait to get a closer look.
OMG!!! You are too creative - I have never seen this before! I love it!! Get that out on DIY sites!!
Did you have issues with your machine breaking down? I eventually had to borrow one from a friend to complete my invites. I love the zig zag stitch that you chose.
They really look awesome! I love the look of stitches on paper!
on a side note, i have that phone!! LOL i love love that phone 
They look so glamourous! Wish I knew how to sew with a sewing machine…I would totally utilize it!
I didn’t use a sewing machine for our programs, but I use it for scrapbooking our wedding pictures. The stitching is incredible looking on the pages.
they look lovely! May I ask where you purchased the cover paper? is it chocolate brown?
