You can build your own on Vistaprint for sure, including adding pictures. I did this from a blank slate and just played around with fonts, colors and layout.

123 print printed out magnets and they turned out nicely. There's a blank template available on that site as well. They shipped quickly, and shipping costs are included in the price you see.
im ordering mine from vistaprint- they have the guidelines on their site for printing specifications... im a designer so i made my own... here ya go.....
I made my own STD magnets but I went all out DIY and made little wooden ones to go with our rustic/vintage whatever the heck it ends up actually being (lol) VT wedding :)
@SarahConnors: Do you have pictures? Sounds like a cool idea! How did you make these?
@tcarril2: This is them! :) :) I found a log behind my mom's barn garage, sliced it with a chop saw (with some help from my fave professor), dried the slices out, and then wood burned each one of them. I used Apex Magnets- these super small but super strong magnets I glued to the back with Elmer's All-Purpose glue, and ta-da!!! :) I ended up making about 90 of them, though I only needed about 65-70, and hand delivered as many as I could. They're about 2 to 3 inches wide, less than a centimeter thick- though no two are the same :) I'm in love with them!
I used Vistaprint for STD magnets. I found a free collage template on the Scrapbooks Etc website. Then I used Adobe Photoshop to add pictures to the template. I saved it as a pdf and uploaded it to the Vistaprint website.
@tcarril2: Aw thank you! I'm an Art major so I literally can't bring myself to pay for things I could easily create myself- and the best part of DIY is being so able to create exactly what you want! I saved a FORTUNE doing these! This coming weekend I'm making the invitations- yep, making from scratch 100 invitations- and I couldn't be more excited! They will end up costing less than 10% what we would pay for something similar from a company or another artist. So worth the time put in!

I'm trying to do my own DIY project by making save the date magnets. I'm clueless on how to start. Do you know where I can find templates or better yet how I can custom design my own? Do I need a special type of computer program or is there a website where I can start from scratch and design them? Any suggestions will help as I'm confused on how to get started.
Thanks!!
