“I Spy” Cards

December 3rd, 2010 @ 8:45 am by Mrs. Meerkat

So this is probably going to be the shortest post you have ever seen me write, but I wanted to show you the “I Spy” cards I mentioned in my reception-decor post.

I saw this in the DIY section of Weddingbee, and I was in love! HisPookie was even nice enough to send me her Photoshop template to start from. (By the way, THANK YOU!)

The only thing I really changed was the color of the fonts, and then I added the same paper-texture background I used for our menus. And in case you’re a font geek like me and your first thought was, “I wonder what those fonts are”:

And there you have it. The shortest Meerkat post ever!

Has anyone else done any fun games like this for your guests to participate in at the reception?

I’ve seen this idea before and really like it! Where are you putting these cards? On each table? Loose by the escort cards, bar, etc?

This is so cool! I was planning on doing cootie catchers but these seem so much less work and still the same effect! Would you mind sharing the template?

Wow, that’s so cute and a clever way to guide guests into taking the shots you’d like to have! I absolutely would have done this if I’d seen it before the wedding! Darn it, haha.

I would love the template too! :) How can you let people know that they need to bring their own cameras….we already have favors so I can’t do the point & shoot disposable ones.?
