Thanks for sharing this..the price breakdown and where u got them is such a big help to other brides on a budget like me.   Is it possible for u to share the sample template with me?  (if u dont mind). I cant seem to open the attachment when I click it. My email ad is anjdwilliams@gmail.com. I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

I LOVE your OOT bags! Thank you so much for sharing! I am going to start cruising the Dollar Tree's in my area to see if I can get any of this stuff. Thanks again!

Hey Tori! I came back to grab a template from your thread and saw that I had missed your reply!! thanks for this info about the dollar tree totes return date. I am torn between ordering the OT ones in blue and white or waiting until Feb.  I really like the dollar tree ones more. Do you happen to remember the other color combinations that were originally available from dollar tree?  They are not even on the site anymore.

 

I have some time to mull it over since I want to be a little more sure of numbers before I go for them.  In the mean time I have started a list to buy the items to put in them, so I can start watching for those deals as they come up, and planning a big purchase from Oriental Trading and Dollartree online.

 

Thanks again for all your help (and attention to detail!).

Hope this helps

Tori!

Another silly question.  I downloaded a template for your survival kit toppers from your OOT Thread, and I noticed that the font is different and shows up ultra huge.  I assume that this means you downloaded a special font?  I dont necessarily need the name of your special font since I think its important that I dont steal ALL your work, but would you be willing to share HOW you got these fonts.  I'm just a beginner when it comes to this design-y stuff!

 

Is there a particular site that hosts the fonts?

Do I have do download them through Microsoft?

Did you pay for them or are they free?

Any other suggestions?

 

Gracias amiga!

 

ps. I noticed one of the other gals is planning another Toronto get together in the meet up thread.  Are any of you girls in the GTA thinking of going?  Might be fun to meet the peeps who we spend so much virtual time with?

oops, I'm silly.  I thought I was posting this in the Canadian girls thread.

I think I may have to steal your sewing kit idea, it's sooo cute and I'm sure it will come in handy for my guests.

The dollar tree bags that I have on hand are

 

-light blue

-green (as pictured)

-hot pink

-red

-yellow

 

as pictured online when they were available (this link should work but they are out of stock) If you do have the time I HIGHLY recommend waiting.  They are actually the most perfect OOT bag ever! I am sure everyone will not believe they were only $1 (so I wont be sharing!) AND you can have them shipped to a dollar tree in buffalo and pick them up to save on shipping!!! Who doesnt love a cross boarder shopping trip!

-light pink

-purple

I believe the "wedding week survival kit" bag toppers were done in "scriptina" "papyrus" and "sloop (something or other)"

 

You can get them all FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE on dafont.com  When you download them be sure that word is closed (shut down completely) then when you open it up again it should be in there.  If you have trouble PM me, this is the "simplified" version! LOL

 

As for a Toronto get together I am in the city every once and awhile, it would be neat to meet my virtual friends!!!
