So you’ve seen the envelope and heard my crazy tales of embossing gone wrong but eventually right. But what, you might ask, is actually inside that carefully decorated envelope?

If I were you, I’d be anticipating some equally DIYed goodness. And I’d be waiting with bated breath to see how I screwed up lovingly crafted the STDs (*snort*). The bottom line is—if I were you? I’d be disappointed.

The truth is, the STDs (*giggle*) were one of my first wedding purchases. That’s right—I simply bought them. I had a coupon code for Shutterfly, and both Mr. Lox and I loved the idea of having our picture incorporated into the STDs (*laugh*). So I ordered them from a stock design. What can I say? Neither one of us is a graphic designer. Luckily, we both have wallets and jobs that pay.

So without further ado, I am unveiling the completely non-handmade but still totally us STD (*snicker*).

There you have it—our lovely save the dates (just couldn’t type that again!) from Shutterfly.

Bonus points if you remember why that picture is special to us!

Did you choose to send STDs (*gurgle*)? Why or why not?
