I've been trying to figure out what font this is or at least a close approximation. Anyone recognize it or seen it recently? I've been looking on dafont.com but have yet to find anything.

We are using a light turquoise with a rich blue navy plus accents of red/orange from tropical flowers.

Hi Angie, It's getting down to the wire. Just a couple weeks until our wedding at Costa Verde. Any last minute advice on do's or don'ts? Anything you wish you done differently that you haven't already mentioned? Cheryl

Don't worry. Folks here are VERY helpful. You'll figure it out! Welcome to the forum

Congrats on your engagement!

Wow! You are definitely ahead of the game. Careful! That's a lot of time to be obsessed with this forum!

Welcome to the forum!

Congratulations!! Welcome to the forum

Welcome to the forum!

I was thinking about using these polyester Urban Totes from JiffyShirts.com for our OOT bags. Big Accessories*BE019*Urban Tote from bags*tote*-*JiffyShirts.com Has anyone else used them? Are they any good? Also, has anyone put their own logo on a polyester bag? I wasn't sure if you could do iron on logos for these bags. Thanks!

They look great! All your work paid off. We ended up using a professional printer for the same reason. (And I'd do it again to keep what little sanity I have left!)

Wow! 700 guests! More power to you. Good luck! (And welcome to the forum)

Very cute!!

Welcome to the forum!!

Wow! Those look great! You'd never know it was your first project ...

I cut the corners and added the compass on the outside for extra flare.

I want to keep costs at less than $5 per invite though. I definitely recommend doing a "proof of concept" ... meaning do one and figure out all the things that work (and don't work) well. It probably took me about 10 minutes for each pass once I had everything printed. But I probably spent a couple hours just messing around with the stamps & embossing. I'd never done anything like this before so it took me a while to figure out all the bits.

to the forum. This is the place to be if you are having a DW. Loads of great advice and ideas!

Rachel, everything looks fantastic!! I love the totes and the jewelry. Now relax and enjoy your wedding!!

Has anyone had any problems bringing the sand back into the country because of Dept. of Agriculture at immigration?

These look great!! I really like the Stardream paper line. Did you have any difficulty with the printing ink on the Stardream envelopes? I wasn't sure how well that would work. Yours look so good!

So I FINALLY have my invitations finished and in the mail. Phew! Thanks to everyone here on the forum for their ideas on the Boarding Pass STDs and invitations (especially Aylee for the template!). I ended up going to a local print shop because my printer at home wasn't able to handle the 80lbs card stock for the boarding passes. That ended up being really good since they found the ticket enclosures in the right color pre-made for a decent price. (I was going to use one of the BDW templates). Our colors are pool and navy with accents of red and orange (mostly from flowers) so I wanted to stick with those colors. Outside Enclosure Inside Announcement & RSVP envelope Invitations & Itinerary RSVP stub Everything all together The Gory Details Enclosure Navy Brochure Enclosures Compass stamp Embossing ink and powder Heat gun (Marvy® Uchida Embossing Heat Tool) Rounder Corner Paper Puncher The outer cover is a navy brochure folder with a single pocket inside. I embossed a compass onto the front and rounded the corners to finish it out. The compass was a stamp I found at Michaels and I used transparent embossing ink & powder. Boarding Passes 80lb card stock - natural white (kind of an off-white color) Rotary Trimmer with both a straight edge blade and a perforator blade (Fiskars® Portable Rotary Trimmer) Rounder Corner Paper Puncher Stapler Glue Spots - HERMA® Dotto™ Permanent I used staples to attach the boarding passes to each other and then used glue spots to attach the bottom pass to the enclosure. The Dotto dots dispenser made it super easy with no mess at all. Envelopes RSVP Envelope - 4bar Pool - Paper Source Invitation Envelope - #10 in natural white (matching the boarding passes) We had the printer print our address on the RSVP envelopes and the back flap of the outer envelopes. We used our printer at home to address the envelopes to our guests. The whole time I was working on this project I regretted not just ordering something from a catalog. Now that they are done and out there, I am SOOO glad I did this!! Thanks to everyone here for the encouragement and ideas. I couldn't have done this without you! Cheryl

Very nice and clean design. Your invitees will love them!

That's hysterical!!! And oh so true ...
