Emma’s wedding is going to have a rustic theme, which really makes it easy for decorating. And because I have this creative-need-to-be-unique-on-a-budget thing in me, I figured I’d make the invitations. So instead of spending a lot of money, I spent a lot of time, but it was a labor of love that I think does reflect her personality.
I bought a roll of brown package paper at WalMart to line the back of the papers to give it a contrast of color, texture and thickness. This was less than $5. The problem was that it curled, so I ironed them flat after I cut a bunch of rectangles that gave me an inch or so of play on each side.
