save-the-date rodeo

So to follow-up with my last blog post about save-the-dates, I thought I would post the other save-the-date ideas I had saved in my "paper" folder as inspiration. I have bombed on tracking the sources, but hopefully they'll inspire you. Happy crafting!

save-the-weekend, whydontcha?

By et | Published Friday, February 25, 2011

I made these save-the-dates and I heart them. Ready? Let's go: I thrifted a couple of giant old atlas's at antique stores and cut liners for the envelopes out of them. I ordered the stamps online--they were all vintage and there were a couple of different sets so not every envelope got the same stamps. I liked that and think it added to the eclectic feel, even though no one else probably knew it. I used a typewriter font to print the addresses when I nearly dissolved in tears when I found out my actual typewriter couldn't hand the thickness of the envelopes. (Hopefully Barack and Michelle are saving the weekend.)
