I love those colors, so festive! Did you glue your inside pages back to back or print on both sides? Was the inside paper something you bought like that or did you print the background design? Any tricks to do the perforation for the tear off RSVP card, almost not sure I want to try, but yours look so great! Thanks.

must have been hard to pick which one to use-- nice job

I am still trying to figure out how to get the passport look for the INSIDE pages also. I don't seem to find an answer, can you actually buy that paper some where? If so, where? Please help!

Glad to hear things are working out (somewhat) for a minute there I thought your Jamaica location name was a Fruedian slip. just kidding

OMG - those are sooooooo awesome!!!

Fruit of the Earth at Target $1.00

oops sorry not Dollar Tree it was Dollar General for the double sided clothing tape...

Dollar Tree also has individual packets of double sided clothing tape, something always useful in a pinch.

aw so cute - maybe the kids could all wear white t shirts and if they got messy they would also get there own keepsake piece of the action.

They are a very nice substitue for flowers. And something you can always give away to special family members afterwards- something they will actually use

small a bit of sand at the bottom of clear bowls/vases, with a votive candle and very tiny shells, looks very nice. If you take a clear juice size glass, cut pieces of bamboo just to cover the top of the glass (stagger the heights) wrap and tie them w/ raffia around the outside and put candle inside glass. sorry not very good instructions

Halloween candy sounds fun - you could even do up some little treat bags

Engraved champagne glasses

Congrats! Lokking forward to hearing about your experiences.

Congrats and welcome. Have fun planning.

welcome & congrats

For sure something unqiue to the area - not something they can get back home - keep it small, they may not have much room to bring stuff back.

Wanting to use pictures of bride/groom in our Passport Invites. Debating on using "real" pictures and adhering them to invite to make it more real looking or just print a copy of the picture along with the printed wording. Any advise/suggestions? Sue

A simple, but not always known trick w/ corner cutter---- use it from the back - you may "think you have pushed the paper in tightly and straight, but that's not always the case- this way you can see before you cut

Bright colors, they make you feel tropical.

#1, but hard choosing, all are great! Don't forget to tell us which you ended up with!

Wow, sounds nice. Guess, it's true, if you want it done right, you gotta do it yourself. Good luck, I am still on the search...

I used 3 small palm tree cutouts and taped them to base of light, the light bulb casted shadows of the palm trees. A very simple and cheap way to add to your theme.

That's sure solves the problem if they get bumped to a different room. And you can always check w/ the front desk to make it's being done, and since there aren't more people involved, which usually means more screw ups, should work out the best. Thanks.
