as promised, here are some behind the scenes shots i took while working on mine and tee’s wedding invites.

i thought the letterpress dies were so cool, i asked the printer if i could keep them. not sure what i’m going to do with them yet, but i’m sure i’ll think of something…

here’s a close up of the mint color hand painted edge of the invite.

the tools for the job…

another helpful tip, always make sure you go to the post office with a complete invitation so they can weigh it and let you know if any extra postage is necessary.

due to the thickness of the invite, the envelope could not be fed through the post office machine, as it is too rigid, so extra postage was definitely necessary.
