Weddingbee boards

My first serious DIY undertaking.  And I finally got them finished last week. We're having a mountain-top Western BBQ for the rehearsal dinner.  I wrote the poem myself and put some practical information on the back (i.e. altitude, lift tickets will be provided, western attire encouraged, will be chilly at night, etc.).

I ordered the paper, red envelopes and address labels from Paper Source.  I printed them myself at home.  I lined the envelopes in different "western" paper myself that I found at Hobby Lobby.  I made the matching return address circle labels for the back of the envelopes.  And ordered matching horseshoe stamps from zazzle.  They just started showing up in our guests mailboxes and the response has been great!

Very cute!!! I love your envelope liners!! And your cute horse shoe motif!!

The liners were very trial and error!!   I originally bought the adhesive paste from Paper Source, but that was a bit of a nightmare - paste everywhere!  And then I started using an Elmer's glue pen, but sometimes the glue ended up going on too thick and started warping some of the envelopes.  It wasn't bad and I'm sure no one noticed but me, but I'm a perfectionist and it bothered me.  The paper I used for the liners were very heavy, which made it more difficult and was more obvious because the edged stuck up, which I tried to fix.  I'd suggest thin paper for a project like this (maybe even wrapping paper or something).  By the time I got to the last 20 envelopes I was using a scotch tape roller, which worked pretty well. 

Here's the tutorial I used for the liners...
