DIY Checks, Checks, and more checks! PIP

This past weekend, I have been going hard on getting my table names, seating chart, and invitations worked on.  I only have one more frame to paint for the table names. I only took one picture but there are 13 tables names. Each are designed differently and there are 13 different languages in all.

I also am just about done with the invites. Just have to get a couple of more stamps. Looks like they will be done before April 1!  I also made the sign for the memorial. I really wanted to do individual candles for each of our love ones that past. But ended up just doing a nice poem in a nice frame and will have one floating candle in a vase lit. I finally ordered some more blue card stock for the programs so I can get them knocked out like next month or May. Here are a few pictures.


The wrap around labels!!! I so love how they came out.


The back of the envelop


The finished invitations!!!  These took a lot of me! But was so worth it!


The RSVP envelops already addressed and stamped for this folks. Hopefully it is not a waste of stamps



The final product with the band and the label.



The table name: French in Love.
