***KAPPAUCF20***

I absolutely love your invites! I have until next August for our wedding (the FI had to cancel our wedding twice b/c of the military..grr), and I am thinking of DIY invites. I completely admit that i'm pretty naive about the process. Can you message me your fonts/programs, and how you went about getting them printed? Thank you!!!

    Thanks for the compliment :).  I used Photoshop to design everything, but I've heard that Photoshop Elements works just as well and is a lot cheaper.  You could probably download a free trial online.  Elements would also be easier to learn (PS can be more difficult to figure out if you've never used it before).  I purchased the graphic from a clipart website and downloaded the fonts for free (Copper Alt Caps Expert and I believe copperplate gothic light... it's been a while so my memory is failing me lol).  I had them printed at my local Alphagraphics location, but you could also try a place like Staples or Office Max.  Sometimes mom and pop shops offer better quality for a lower price so you might want to check out that option as well.  Hope that helps!

    Thank you so much! I've seen Elements and it wasn't priced too bad, so that is probably what I will get. Did you just save your layouts to a zipdrive and take in your paper to the shops and have them print & cut??Thank you :)

    Yeah, I saved all the files on CD and just took them to the store.  I did all the cutting myself though because the measurements were really precise, and I didn't want to risk them getting messed up lol.
