Hello Bees. π
I was wondering for those of you who made your own stds, if you added pictures to them, how did you get them on the std. Did you use photo paper to make them? Just glue/stick them on somehow after you made the stds? Please let me know what you did. Fi and I are going to go get our engagement pictures taken today, and I plan on starting our stds sometime this week. Thank you in advance. π

We haven’t made our DIY save-the-dates yet, but we will! We’ll probably work with the photo digitally, and then print. Does that help?
Of course, it depends entirely upon what kind of save-the-dates you want to make. π

I have made cards using photos and my inkjet printer did a nice job printing the photos just straight off of Word (I’m sorry I have no pictures of it).
But here’s the thing: it depends on what you want. For me, I didn’t like the thinness and glossiness of photopaper and preferred having nice cardstock. But if you want a crisper image, go with photopaper.

Unless you just want to DIY (which is totally cool), you could get the coupon online and get them from Vistaprint for Free. We got 100 for free, we had to pay a custom design upload charge and shipping and the total was $11 for 100 of them. I couldn’t really make them for that.
Just a thought. Good luck!
