I just printed the first 20 pieces of vellum for my invites. So stressful! The printer took a couple pieces at a time, I grabbed them quickly and then manually fed the last few pages. Luckily they all turned out just fine! But, I think I need to take a time out before I print the other 130. Otherwise I may just panic and die! I knew I should have bought a "cushion" box. But, I need 141 invites, and couldn't justify purchasing another box of 50 that I wouldn't use. So, here's hoping for 150 perfect outcomes!

I think I will print the next 130 in batches of 5 or 10 to reduce the odds of chaos and crying though.

Anyone else DIY-ing their invites and having serious freakouts?

i fed mine through 5 at a time.. JUST in case.. labouring process but it worked. Also it gave me a enough time to lay them out to dry.. I did 170 invitation wording.. 110 maps, accomodation cards and reception cards.

I had a heart attack weekend!

You can do it!

Okay, I'm 2/3 done . . . only 50 more to go! I think I'll take a few hours off to steady my hands, then start again!

And I'm not even to the RSVP cards or accomodations information yet! Luckily, I haven't even done the layout for those, so I have a nice break coming my way

I think I'd rather be back cutting 150 ribbon lengths like I did last night. 3 spools of ribbon leftover, so I have to figure out what I want to do with them (courtesy basket decoration perhaps?)

Done! Only one man down, so 149 successes and one failure. If it turns out that fail was a crucial invite, I'll just go to Michael's and buy a piece of vellum.

It helps that it's gray and icky out today. Definitely up for crafty projects since outside sucks right now!

Awwww - well I'm glad it turned out (mostly) well for you!!
