KKS DIY mint matchbook <pictures>

[kks2012]

This is my first DIY thread (yay!) I received the template from Bride2010 and Martha Stewart's DIY matchbook template. I think this was the easiest of the things that are on my "to do" list.

 

1. card stock (ream was $15/ purchased at Michael's also used paper for AHR invitations) 

2. printing @kinko's ($.50 color per page and four were on a page/38 pages of each<2 designs>)

3. Stock tape dots ($4.95 target)

4. life save mints (individually wrapped $8.99 3lb bag target)

5. paper cutter (borrowed)

Never mind the gray ones. I have to fix this template. When you put your information in you have to remember to delete stuff instead of pushing it to the back. You fold the bottom, so you have a lip at the bottom Staple the bottom and put a sticky dot above where you stapled. The stapler was $2.49 at target and it came with 1000 standard size staples(more than enough) Place the mint on the sticky dot Fold Insert the top to the stapled lip. You don't have to crease it, if you don't want to. (front) Back The peacock ones have the same wording on the back and the front says "Koretta and Marcus mint to be may 8, 2012" Pretty easy and fun! Enjoy!
