    Yay!  Not much of a DIY girl, but was so happy to have this idea & design them! We wanted something fun to convey that we are having a full-blown wedding with all the bells & whistles, but that we don't take ourselves too seriously.  The picture STDs are cute, but the idea of sending everyone a big pic of ourselves made us feel kinda sheepish Embarassed    

    Then I had this fun idea!  I bought the rights to this photo of a Victorian couple on their wedding day for only $8, and then designed these STD postcards on a site primarily for businesses sending out mailings, so that was super cheap too!

    Thanks ladies!  I love the bride rocking those wax flowers, and his bout sash thing is pretty awesome.  It fits our wedding, which is in a rose garden at an old Victorian home.  :o)   (btw, i changed the date & names on the back for the internets...)

    VERY creative.  I love the look of it.  And it's a bit comical which is a win in my book.
