Semi-DIY Gateford Invitations are DONE! - **PICS**


Recommended Posts

They aren't in the mail yet but at least all the supplies have arrived. cheesy.gif I did all the designs myself and I based it off the boarding pass STD I did. (http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t40728)

 

I started with a 5x7 postcard with rounded corners. I ordered that from the place that prints up business cards and party fliers for me. (I design those on the side.) Cost incl. shipping = $56

 

I ordered regular sized postcards from Vistaprint for the reply cards. Cost incl. shipping = $17.47

 

I purchased the gatefold cards in Dark Blue (because that color was on sale! I would've preferred I brighter blue. $7.50 x 3 packs) and the size A7 envelopes in Orange Fizz from Discount Blank Invitations, Black Card Stock & More from CutCardStock.com. ($9.55 x 2) Total cost incl. shipping = $50.30

 

The orange cardstock is from Michael's. I bought 12x12 sheets and then cut them in one inch strips to make the band. They were .29 per page and I bought 10 sheets. Cost= $2.90

 

I printed our logo onto white cardstock that I already had laying around. Cost =$0

 

Total cost = $126.67 for 100 invitations!

 

And without further adieu, pics!
