    I've decided on this design & I like the brown backing (after tons of back & forth). I'm going to get some dark chocolate shimmer paper (my colors are navy, white & chocolate brown) The ugo paper below is just blah construction paper.

    Haha right now it looks so low budget... gah! Now that I know what I want I can't wait to get started with the right tools :)

    I have a perforator that is sooo awesome. I will use it to perforate the far right hand side of the boarding pass & the little fold on the left hand side. The reply card will easily tear apart to be put back into an envelope & sent off!

    Our wedding has an travel/airplane theme & I hate theme weddings, but I like to think I'm doing it the right way haha :)

    I love it! I'd totally do it for a DW or a travel themed wedding. And the belly band made of an atlas is genius!

    Love it! And the belly band/envelope liner from an atlas will be awesome!

    What's your all-caps font? I think we might be using the same one! :D

    Those are so cute and very creative. Goes perfect with your theme! Can't wait to see the final result with the "right" tools. Oh and the map belly band just adds a little something!

    Ahhhhhhh! Love! All of it, especially the belly band! If you need more maps, let me know. We'll probably have some that we get rid of at work, so you could totally have them!
