It's Official 2
Yesterday I got hitched!
All the blood, sweat and tears paid off and it was a great time. Now since I know none of you can crash the wedding with your wild helicopters and flashing cameras, here are the invitations we made.
Rachelle made the paper and I painted the orchids on the 80 sheets. Then I made a wood stamp to add an Asian feel to the painting. The stamp was "RWR" entwined with the first "R" facing backwards. We had to spray mount a sheet of pink paper to sit behind the painting to add contrast. We printed the the text on vellum and used ribbon to hold it in place in the envelopes we bought. The ribbon was laced through 8 slits we cut into the back (Where Rachelle used a store bought stamp to make sure eveyone knew we made this thing) and sent to the front.
We then wax sealed the evelopes shut with the Chinese symbol for LOVE.
The envelopes were cool. Envelopements made the envelopes and they came with a built in pocket that that held all the important papers (directions, hotel info, registry stuff, and RSVPs (that people didn't feel they needed to send back)).
More wedding info will follow including our favors, our programs, and our table markers. Keep your eyes peeled.
