    Well, I finally got around to documenting some of the DIY goodness that's been going on at Casa Craftypants.  I started with photos of the invitation suite that I designed. Here's a view of the complete set. I've posted a handful of other photos on my new blog.  (Yep, I've joined the ranks of the blogging brides-to-be!) :o)

    Craftypants those are amazing! Your map is to die for and I am so loving the silhoutte of you and the Mr. Did you print them on your home printer or are you a Gocco bride?

    Thanks so much!  The frame and oval graphics came from this great CD I picked up at Barnes & Noble.  And I've gotten so much mileage out of those little silhouettes.  They're definitely my biggest bang-for-the-buck DIY project (FREE!).  :o)

    @FutureFisher: I wish that I were a Gocco bride!  (I've blown my Gocco budget on Cricut supplies, lol.)  I had the invites and RSVP's printed at my little local printshop and took care of the map myself on the color laser.  If you want to see some real Gocco gorgeousness, check out PrettyKitty's invitation suite.  Totally swoon-worthy!
