Our boarding pass STD's are done!

[KarenM]

So I just wanted to say thank you to the BDW forum & to so many of you without whom I never would've even known what a boarding pass invite was! We got so many great ideas & helpful tips from this site & couldn't have done it without all of you that have gone before us.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

 

We used this template as a guide for the boarding pass & ticket jacket but FI modified them & made them in Illustrator.

DIY: Boarding Pass Invitation / Save The Date - Aylee Bits

 

The graphic we found in Istockphoto & we customized it & changed the colors for our boarding pass.

 

 

 

 

Some of the things we found helpful were to use a small corner rounder to do the corners. Also use a perforating blade to perforate the left & right ends of the ticket to make the stub/staple-here areas. Then after perforating you can bend the left side back & easily round the corners, getting that little cut-out indented area to look right.

As all of you DIYer's know this is a labor of love, but I'm so happy we made them ourselves.
