After months of work, we are so close to finishing the invitation that I can taste it. We've finished designing and proofreading and readjusting the Invitation itself and the Information card. We're still working on the RSVP postcard, but we have half of it finished. We just have the backside left to do.
Last weekend we went to Paper Zone (in the midst of a little squabble, since I thought we should have brought our images of the invitation to compare colors-- turns out Chris was right, we didn't need it!) and got sample card stock. We printed some test runs and have tentatively picked the papers. Then we went to Costco and bought very expensive color printer cartridges-- enough to print 150 invitations.
This has been a true group project. Chris has been manning the actual program manipulation (which is the lion's share of the work and frustration), and I've been designer, font-finder, text writer and proofreader.
I can't wait to start assembly! (But I wonder what I'll be saying once that starts...)
It's all about the checkboxes... Next up, ceremony!

Yay! We're about at the same stage in invitation construction as you are - and I just can't wait to drive those babies to the post office and kiss them goodbye! :)
I know... so close I can taste it!
Congrats on being so close to being done! It is such a nice feeling...
Have fun assembling!
I can relate! We have been working on STDs and so much paper is flying around it's crazy. Can't wait to see how they turn out!
