    So I just finished designing my STD magnets and wanted to get some feedback on them. Our colors are shades of grey and orange, with a hint of yellow. Let me know what you think!

    @amberjanuary: Great job! I love your photo.

    The only suggestion I'd have is to move the 'invitation to follow' to below the date and in a little smaller font. That way no one gets it confused with having something to do specifically with the website you've set up since it is right before the address and it's all the same font size. Totally just a personal preference type of suggestion, I think that they're lovely!

    @itshouldsnow:

    Thanks! A friend of mine told me about www.dafont.com where you can browse and download fonts for free. I found it there.

    @NDBee:

    That is a great suggestion. I hadn't thought about the possibility of people getting confused. I'll play around with that.

    @amberjanuary: Wow, you're quick with the edits! I had to ask a sweet bee to make mine for me, I'm so not a good editor. Haha.

    I like the new one a lot! (I liked the old one too, but older folks who aren't always familiar with Save the Dates could have been a bit confused). These are just great!

    This looks fantastic - I agree that it looks a little better after the edit (with "Invitation to Follow" at the bottom.)

    How did you make it?

    @amberjanuary: Beautiful! What site are you using to create these? And around what is the cost (if you don't mind me asking)

    @MrsAu:

    I actually designed mine in PowerPoint. My sister is a photographer, so I'm going through her to order them (not sure where she does this), but I've heard others mention magnetstreet.com.

    @MrsDiddles:

    Like I mentioned above, I didn't use a site since my sister is going to order them for me. I used PPT to design the layout. For the size I'm getting 2.5"x3", you can get 100 on www.magnetstreet.com for $119 (and they come with little envelopes!) http://www.magnetstreet.com/made-for-each-other-save-the-date-mini-magnets

    I'm going to get card stock and some 4"x5" envelopes. Then I'll cut the card stock to the size of the envelopes and use zots to stick the magnets to the card stock.

    @KYbride86:

    congrats on picking a date! I felt like a weight was lifted when I finally found my venue and solidified the date.

    Awesome idea!

    If it's not too late it may also be a good idea to make "Are getting married" a little larger than the rest of the text there - just to differentiate between the announcement and the info.
