I love the idea of the photoshare cards as well. My FI and I have already talked about this, but hadn't come up with an idea on how to share with everyone...I think I am so going to use this idea...I would love to have your template or whatever you used.

And with that being said and posted. I do have to go to work in the morning....BOO!!!!Good night ladies!

It isn't really a template, I borrowed the wording from other brides and I have perforated sheets that make business cards.  So I just use the template available on their website and designed it from there.  I use photoshop for everything, the file is a PSD but i can save it as a PDF if you want it.  I don't mind sending it to you.

Girl STOP! When I read what I typed I thought her daddy probably isn't where mine is but if he's a "dead-beat" dad than metaphorically it would work. But I would freak if they're in the same place - well not technically but you know what I mean. Even before it all I knew he wouldn't be there - we've had a strange relationship for years. I feel bad because he's been depressed for years knowing he won't be able to give me away - but I've always told him it's his choice to make changes and get himself there. Secretly I'm glad because I know the drama would ruin my day. It's weird for me to hear women talk about that moment - like in R~'s blog - I'm so happy for her but I can't imagine having that moment. AAAANNNNNYWAY Enough of that crap!

 

I've been thinking of stalking the Canadian thread because I've seen some wonderful stuff from them - those ladies are talented! I've found comfort knowing you stalk as well.

 

I've read you talking about the awesome ebay finds (I'm more than an ebay whore - It's sick to see what was spent total and I think of the unpaid bills sitting there while I bid on .99 cent free shipping items, hey I got ton's of stuff for .01 free shipping too but all that add's up! I'm so down for a tag party - how sweet of you to offer! I have a while so you'll be able to settle down from after the wedding.

 

Checking out the hanger thanks! I'm scared to get one - after reading what happened to R~ I know it's my destiny

The programs actually came from Janet, a Canadian bride (I stalk that thread also, LOL). She shared her programs with me, I edited and changed colors and printed them out. Her share is right on point and make them all so easy to perfect.

 

Bag Tags ~ well do you remember that I am an eBay whore. Well another bride on here mentioned something about a Cuttlebug, so I went on eBay and purchased one for less than half of what they cost in store, brand new.  It is an embossing - die cutting machine.  Anywho, I used a die cut to cut the bag tags and the tags on the escort cards.  Now in that same breath, while I was on eBay stalking a Cuttlebug, I also stalked a Cricut Create, refer to a previous post when I first got them.  With a new Create (had to get a replacement because the first one just didn't work), I did the 'thank you' and the palm trees. A little adhesive & spray glue. Then there is the eyelets, with a 50% off coupon from Michael's I purchased a Crop-A-Dile and some eyelets....and VOILA!

 

Name a date and time and we can create some tags for you.  I need a day trip anyways!

 

My hanger comes from -  einspanner I liked his also because he replied very quick when I asked a question, he creates and ships within 48 hours of payment and yeah I like the wood also. He offers three different woods and three different color wires.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was going to suggest extra stems or cut a toliet paper roll and pull it as tight as you wish - that will also give you a smooth handle

My concern with the flowers, is because they came in bunches I had to cut them off their thick stem, so the base are rather skinny, does that matter?

 

And I will wait for my pictures of your flowers!!! How are you feeling? Getting closer....

So it's 2am and I should be sleep because I start my new job tommorow (but I can't) Since I started working I won't be there on your dress day. Oh (clears throat) HAPPY DRESS DAY! I meant to tell you sooner but had a busy week getting a job! I'm so glad because I can start making wedding purchases again but sad because I can't drive up to be your Va girlfriend today. I really wanted to! I know you will post pictures and I will comment and be as supportive as I can. BTW have we talked shoes yet? I just wanted to say I'm so excited for you to get to wear your masterpiece (you should think about naming her like the crazies on bridezilla) and I hope everything goes well for you today! I promise at some point we will have a rodevu. I know you have it all together but if you do have another crazy DIY day, I'll try and come be an extra pair of hands to help you out.

 

<3 Dom

I am serious....I will PM about my father, I won't bore anyone else about that.  Yet even before this day, I always knew that he wouldn't be there rather I wanted him or not...once again that's a different story, so I'll PM you all of that.

 

I stalk the Canadian thread and the November Brides thread in Mexico, hey they didn't have a general November 2011 so I have every right.  Janet ( a Canadian bride) is how I got my programs!

 

Trust me when I say I'm bad...and it isn't just eBay, I order everything on line and I do mean everything from TP to dish detergent.  eBay is a wicked obsession, I sell and buy.  Hell, if I can find it at a cheaper price and I just have to wait a few days for it, I'm all about that.  I try to plan so that I have enough time to order versus having to go in store and pay the extra.  

 

Funny thing is I did cut the TP roll, but it's to wide, I guess I should have glued it tighter, I think I'm going to stick with the rolls, after all who doesn't have extra rolls laying around. I know I do.

Well congrats on the new job!!! I know exactly how you feel.  I always wanted my wedding November 11, 2011 (couldn't get that date because I changed locations 3 times) but we couldn't officially start planning until I went back to work. I stayed at home after we had our daughter. So as soon as I got a job this March, I was on the phone making plans, LOL.  I get my dress this Saturday, I am soooo excited about it.  This weather sucks though, I wanted to press my hair (thank goodness I didn't) its been raining the last 3 days. I should have just twisted it down and wore it curly. Maybe I'll do that tonight. Well I can be your VA girlfriend....I told my husband that I was going into paper work after our wedding, you know stationery, cards, invites stuff like that he said cool.  

 

Shoes - Giiiirlll, Navy blue peep toe red bottoms!!! I squealed like a little girl when they finally arrived, they are so sexy.  Then I ordered the convertible strap sandals that's posted in the "show me your shoes" thread. I bought those in orange, I should receive them next week.

 

And don't offer your hands because I will use them! I have so many things to wrap up, so I am definitely up for all the help I can get!!

 

PMing you know
