Saving the Date, Complete

So my beautiful designer friend Chris came back with round two of our STDs on February 20th.  They looked like this:

Round two!  All photos/screen captures personal.

Jason and I liked them, but took a few days to let them settle.  During that, I figured out that I wanted entire words to be in the same font, but different fonts for each word.  So I sent her this:

She had an exercise to do at work, which means that we just now got back together on Skype and came up with this:

We ended up taking the green border off the backside, and a few other small things.  Chris was going to take them to a print shop in Korea, but didn't like the paper selection.  So she ordered cardstock from Cut Card Stock and decided to print them herself.  I ordered printed ribbon for the "fortune" part, and kraft envelopes to send them out in.  On a rainy day, I attacked this box of goodies:

We ran into an issue with our printer, so it took quite awhile to get the front printed, but I was SUPER happy with the results, thanks to fontspace and Beau's computer-savvy-ness.

And finally, theme-appropriate stamps I ordered:

FINALLY!  Ready to fly.

They're supersimple, but I'm happy with the results!
