  • Save the date!

    I'm on a posting roll....

    We already sent out our save the date cards so I figure it's safe to post!

    • Wedding Cake Stamp from Michaels ($3-4 on sale)
    • Gold Ink pad from Michaels ($2 on sale)
    • New York City postcard... 5 cents each
    • uni-ball waterproof/fade proof pen in black

    When we explored the streets of NYC for postcards we finally found a place that sold it for a nickle each. When we went to the cashier to check out he said...

    "how many?"
    "um........ 200 do you want to count?"
    "no."

    haha.

    Mr. Poppy stamped the postcards and I wrote them out. It took forever to handwrite each postcard but it was well worth it! We didn't want anyone to forget the date so we said to keep the postcard as a raffle ticket at the wedding! We're hoping that people will put it on the fridge so they'll always remember....

    We already got so many emails from guests saying they will MAKE SURE they bring the postcard cuz they want the gift!!! I would post what the gift is - but a lot of my guests read this site... so.... I guess everyone will have to wait till after the wedding

    Do you see the red heart? Guess what I used to colour it?
    Marker? Red pen? Crayon?

    I used nail polish that had glitter. hehe.... ^___^

  • ryc  Oh and if you scroll through my xanga you can see the trials

  • that's very creative..

  • v cute. i love handwritten notes and snail mail. it's gives you a warm fuzzy feeling deep down.

  • yea i got the card, so what's the gift?

  • Aah those are adorable!!!! Very creative :)

  • that's a cute idea! did you go to the michael's in queens too? i'm there a lot!

  • very cute.  i'm making my own save the dates too.  i didn't even think of a stamp ....

  • me again.  thanks for the comment.  i was thinking of using that bouquet for my rehearsal bouquet, but I never thought of the toss bouquet--that's a good idea.  And you'd never guess how cheap it was to make at Micahels: under $20 including the flowers, floral tape, and ribbon.  (I actually combined three of their premade bouquets and added the pink rosebuds and the pink peonies to fill it out).
