Boarding pass Invitations with lots of pictures! My 3rd DIY project done!


Recommended Posts

While I dreaded the process of cutting the tickets, rounding every corner, gluing the ticket holders, it was very rewarding in the end!  I love how they turned out!!!   I'll list the cost of items and where I got them :)

 

1. white cardstock at Walmart 150 sheets: $5.50

2. apple green cor'dinations cardstock at Joanne's : 20cents to 33cents a piece

3. brads at Michaels: 1.49 a pack of 24, it consists of 8 flamingos, 8 plalm trees, 8 martini drinks per pack . the martini ones didn't work right so I didn't use them.

4. beach envelopes at Office Max: 8.29 per pack of 50. 

5. Fuchsia ribbon left from my making my STDs

6. Monogram stickers made from printing on avery labels (2"x4"), punching them out with 1"circle puncher, bought previously for the STDs

7. holds for the brads were made by my Fiance with his drilling tool. the one thing he could do to help lol. it was also nice that the drill can drill a large amount of cardstocks at a time.

8. Boarding pass templates: I used mainly Jaime's boarding pass template. I will post the link once bdw stops acting up on me.

 

pictures:

I designed three different backgrounds for the tickets.  I couldn't pick one. My fiance liked them all too so I use them all.  I had 6 tickets in one invitation so I just repeated the backgrounds.

made 60 invitations:  You can see the palm tree brads and you can also see some martini glass brad in the first row, they don't look nice because they stick out at the top.  I used them to mark the ones that are not perfectly cut so that I could toss them out or use them last...lol I'm a OCD perfectionist...

HI! ty!!!   I made 60 invitations and if I added all the hours that I worked on it them it would add up to about a full weekend. (I spreaded it out over a week)  I made the ticket holders first because i wanted to decorate with glitter glue on the dots between the starfishs and shell.

I will email you the template that I worked off of, just pm me your email addy.

ty!  I was on the fence too but I had to get the palm trees so I got them and they turned out great except for the martini glasses.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
