312 dtg!!!

Wow....soon we will be under 300 days to go.....amazing how time flies huh?

So.....got some menial stuff out of the way to keep myself organized. Since I have pretty much finalized the design for the invitations, I was able to find out how much this is all going to cost me! Including stamps, probably around $180.....really the paper only costs around $100. Yeah, the stamps kill me.

Needed: Black cardstock----available in pads at UA
Green cardstock----which I still need to find in a catalog or at Kelly Paper
Black and White cardstock----available to order through UA
Announcement/response cards----on order soon at UA
Clear Vellum----available in either pads or sheets at UA
Outside envelopes----on order from UA
Monogrammed stamp-----check
Silver Ink----available at UA
Labor----myself and my elves(bridesmaids)

I was also able to check out some more fabric with my wonderful future MIL (mother-in-law). She's going to do some test runs and try to make the fabric stiffer/thicker without having to sew a black or white backing on it (since it's cotton and so thin). Luckily there is a sale going on at Joann's this weekend, so here's hoping they have enough of this pattern I like!!


P.S. How cool are these lanterns? If I was getting married near a large body of water, I would totally want to use these!!
