Paper came from Discount Wedding Invitations, Vellum Paper, Vellum Envelopes, Card Stock Source - Paperandmore.com, yes I printed on my home computer
2. How did you cut it so precisely?
Very carefully!
3. Where did you get those little metal things that hold it?
They are decorative brads from Hobby Lobby. I also used them on my invitations and my menus.
4. Is there nothing attaching the papers together? Do they just fan out and the guests just kinda fan it as big or small however they want it?
You got it.
5. Did you just follow how they did it step by step? I saw some cardstock in Michael's that I liked, but I wasn't sure if that's what you used.
I used cardstock for the paper, but for the red sheets I used the fiskars embossing tool to texturize the paper. That was the most time-consuming part.
6. And lastly...what font did you use because it is beautiful?
Hmm...that display is done using Scriptina (the headings) and I actually don't remember what I did for the main wording(I think it looks like Anglina?). This is actually just my mock-up that I posted. For my real programs I used Allegro and Copper Alt Caps Expert.
To all the ladies, how do you get the monigram with the couple's information or initials...I see lots of you have them and I want one too. lol
If you let me know what style of monogram you want, along with your names, dates, colors, etc. I can make you one.

I'll be interested to see your answers to all of the questions above! I probably spent a couple nights' worth of evenings in front of the tv making them. But, again, the hard part was embossing the red paper- if I hadn't done that they would have been much easier.
