    I finally finished my save-the-dates and I think they are pretty darn cute if I say so myself!  :)  We decided to do postcards since even homemade magnets using magnetic business cards were still going to be costly with postage and all.  So, what do you think?!

    Thanks ladies!  I was so happy to find the great sunflower image on Microsoft Office so I didn't have to pay for an image off of iStockPhoto or something.  Thanks goodness for GIMP to edit out the crappy grey background.

    I hate that the JPEG came through so funky and blurry---not sure why.  I know they didn't print that way.  Bummer.

    Miss Sewing:   It's a free font from DaFont called Delikatessen  :)

    I actually used Microsoft Publisher and then I used GIMP to edit out the background grey part of the sunflower.  When I uploaded the images on here I just saved them as JPEG and that must be why they are a little fuzzy.

    They look happy and fun.  Good call on saving money and ditching the magnet idea :)

    I actually just went to Office Max and bought their perforated postcard cardstock.  There are four postcards to a sheet and the box has about 120...at $12.99!  The cardstock has a little texture to it so it adds a little something to the postcard instead of completely flat cardstock.  Some of my family actually thought I had someone make them for me....hehehe.
