Invitations - Completed

Posted by: Dan on Apr 27, 2008

Everyone cheer… the invitations are finally done. And let me tell you it was a chore. The worst part – trying to find double sided tape, the kind that comes in the handy “apply directly to the paper” type of dispenser. I hit WalMart this morning and they didn’t have any. Then I ran to Walgreens and they didn’t have any either. Finally I hit K-Mart and found some (at $5 each though – rip off!).

I had about 60 invitations to do today and I went though them a little faster than I thought. I think it helps that I did a bunch last night so I had a system.

Just for fun, let’s see what what was used during this process.

110 invites – with some material left over in case I need to make a few more at the last minute.

1870 cuts to make them

220 score lines

440 folds

One ink cartridge

170 sheets of paper

4 rolls of double sided tape

Rubber cement

One paint brush

Roughly 43 hours

My sanity

And here they are:
