I thought about doing the save the dates on my own, and by the time I could find some decent templates it just felt like time was working against me so I ended up getting save the date magnets from Magnet street.  The I bought legal size envelopes and put the save the date with small envelope in the larger envelope with an insert that including a message, information about our travel agent, the hotel and hotel rates, and our registry (which we were not initially going to do).  I just sent them out last week.

 

I decorated the outer envelope with a "love" stamp in red and the address label in dark purple.  I decorated the inner envelope with another stamp "Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss" in purple ink and got a red glitter pen and colored in the O in Love (labor intensive).  I also put a sticker with our monogram on the inner envelope under the stamp and used a purple glitter pen to highlight the circle of the sticker.  Took me a little while but they were bad at all!  i'm going to post them separately at some point soon.

Sure...here is my save the date.  I tried the DIY thing but I really didn't have time to dedicate as I needed so I ended up ordering magnets from Magnet Street.  I tried to add a bit o color to the inner envelope because I realized it was a bit too plain AFTER the fact. lol

Ok, let's try this again

[jandl2013]

I did a letter insert because I had a lot of people asking questions and we have a lot of older family that do not use the internet so this made it simpler.  the save the date included the website and is a magnet so it's a nice keepsake, but the letter provided a lot of the information that the invitation did not contain due to the size of my boarding pass invites.
