It actually just a dollie (guess that is how it is spelled?) glued to the inside of a paper bag! I would never try to get that intricate with a luminary...I may have tried the beaded OOT bag but they would really make me CRAZY!

I am glad they turned out better for you Leia! They are very tricky I have learned....as long as you keep the iron moving around and using the edge of it sometimes (seemed to work around the edge of the transfer) it should work. If the transfer paper starts to pull up when you are trying to remove the backing just go over it again with the iron, but as little as possible, otherwise the clear will turn brown.

I want ot use it for my boarding pass envelopes, but I am kinda scared... Thanks ladies for all the nice compliments! I do love how simple and elegant they turned out. Carly as far as the metallic paper -yeah it was a pain in the butt! I had to print them under the glossy paper category because they would smear too much. Though once I printed them I had to lay them out for a day or two to let them really dry before I started cutting them, just to make sure. It turned out really clear on the paper though.

Finally...I can mark this off my list. Well almost, still working on the AHR ones. here are some pictures of the finished ones. I used the metallic bronze card enclosures from Paperandmore.com and the aqua lagoon metallic card stock from there too. I embossed the tree on the front of them as well with aqua embossing powder. I love the way they turned out! Front: Back folded up: Inside: Inside with RSVP:

Happy Birthday....Have a great day!!

I know a lot of us on here are using starfish and other shells in our decorations so I thought I would post some pictures of the shells I bought. I bought them through Sealife coral and seashells, wholesale seashells online, mother of pearl shells and it was shipped/arrived within 1 week. I got way more than I thought at $35.00. I am using the starfish for the name cards at the table and using the other shells around the table in the hurricanes along with sand and candles....let me know if you have any other questions.

to the forum. There have been a couple of brides on here who got married at that hotel which have posted reviews, I am sure they will help!
