DIY | Invitations - 2

Putting them together! Instead of telling you the story, we thought we'd take pictures to show you what we did to create these invites!

Friend - Leslie, had to cut off the extra bottom of the invite
 Then Jac put them all together, we didn't get a picture of that because he is so fast - like the Flash! Next... the final touches!

Putting on the Belly Bands - first you line it up

Next - fold it around the back

And lastly - tape it closed!
The next part was addressing the envelope.  I found this neat idea online of a wrap around label, which I thought looked much more classy than the simple Avery labels you can buy at the store.  First I found this neat tool that can turn your paper into a sticker - so we used that.

Feed the address labels through the sticker machine.

This is what came out.

I had to take off the plastic covering from the stickers.

Then I needed to take the label off of the label sticker sheet.

It was not as easy as this picture makes it look...

See - it got a little challenging... luckily there was only one fatality!

First I stuck on the return address to the back

then folded it around to the front

smooth it out
and file!

Jac would then find the appropriate insert to add to the envelope


Stuff them into the proper envelopes and BAM! Done! (well after he licked them all!)
