Invitations

Now that the move is complete, stuff in storage, settled into Tom & Belle's and Soccer Camp at church is complete it is time to focus on the upcoming wedding.
It seems like there is so much to do and such a little time to get it all done. This weekend is focusing on invitations. I have gotten a lot done already today and am going to try to get everything but the outer envelopes done tonight. I think I can, I think I can, I think I can....
This is my break from them for a couple of minutes and then it will be back to work. Thankfully I do not have too much more to do. Just some slits and gluing and assembling them together. Then it will be time to calligraphy the envelops.
It has been fun doing them ourselves and putting them altogether- including picking what we wanted, thankfully I have been saving wedding invitations and programs since I was a teenager and had many to get ideas from. I "stole" both my invitation and wedding program idea from Elizabeth Johnson Calvin. She had great ideas and I have used them- I have heard it say that imitation is the highest form of flattery. From going to pick out the paper, getting all the supplies and working on them, I have had fun using my creativity in this aspect of my wedding. September 18, 2010 will definitely showcase Joyce and her talents or her attempts at least.
So much to do, must stop rambling....
