Default JamaicaBride's (Erin's) STDs *PICS*

**SORRY THEY ARE SO BIG!!!

Hey all! Thought I would share my STDs with you. A special thanks goes out to Katrina! I went to Michigan so my super-crafty aunt could help me out. THe woman seriously has a room devoted to nothing but scrapbooking! If Michaels ever goes out of business she could open her basement! Well, my dumbass didn't bring the file with me! So, I "borrowed" Katrina's template and there you go! They weren't the ones I originally worked on but am thrilled with the way they came out. We got nothing but compliments!

I bought my paper from Discount Wedding Invitations, Vellum Paper, Vellum Envelopes, Card Stock Source - Paperandmore.com. I can't say enough good things about the quality and the service and the price!

I used a white linen cardstock and stamped a beach design on each page. I used a brushed nickel rivet and secured them together with the omega ribbon that ties in both of our colors. I made really simple jackets and punched out a palm tree, which is kind of becoming our symbol!

Tips:
Find any 4 people and start an assembly line!
Use the corner-rounder paper punch to save time and make the edges even
Because the eye of the rivet was so small I used a needle threader to get it through
I had my travel agency make a full color brochure to go in the envelope with her contact info, trip cost, etc. This was great and no cost to me!

I think I spent about $100 for 125. Maybe less than that. I need to go back and re-calculate the cost.

I used rubber stamps, 5 different ones because I couldn't choose, and aqua metallic ink from the Martha Stewart collection at Michael's.

I especially love the compass because it has a fleur-de-lis. I have an unhealthy onsession with them!
