Yesterday I dropped all but one invitation in the mail.  After staying up until 2am with my MOH I had them 70% done, just missing assembly which I accomplished during lunch with help of a coworker.  None of the invitations look the same but I'm pretty proud of our homemade work.  Lots of love going into those :)

Disaster averted...

Circa 1 am as I am (sloppily by now) writing out the RSVP postcards, Steph looks up and says... "Sh*t...." And I look at her and say, "please tell me it is something we can fix and it does not involve starting from scratch."  Turns out we didn't create a way for people to let us know whoooo was RSVPing.  With little hesitation (so proud of myself) I found a solution.  So just don't worry about it, the little number on the bottom left corner will let me know who is replying!

If you excuse the AWFUL lighting my camera phone captures (especially in my office) here is a picture of what all the hard work looks like!  Invite on the left, RSVP on the right.

Saved some money doing them ourselves, I think.  Here are a breakdown of costs:

Scrapbook Paper: $15
Frosty Paper: $6
Ribbon: $16
Fleur de lis & "Adore" stamps: $16
Stamp Ink: $4
Envelopes: $14
Sharpie Pens: $4
Postage: $33
Total:  $108

We have plenty of both types of paper left over as well as the stamps & ink (of course) to use for other things like place cards, programs, or whatever my creative MOH can think of.  So... not a bad $108 spent, at all!
