AW: STDs!

I think this is my first WR AW!

STDs are all done and going into the mail today.  Here they are!

Front:

Back:


ETA:  I edited the photo on Picnik.com (if you haven't checked it out - do so! It's free and pretty awesome) and ordered the cards from Mixbook.com.  Mixbook was the only website I could find with 4" x 8" customizable cards.

    SKP - Would you be offended if I stole that idea?  Because that might be the cutest STD I've ever seen.

    Well, I'd be lying if I said I came up with it myself.  Please use it if you like it!

    Thanks ladies!  We have sent some pretty funny Christmas cards in the past and wanted the STD to be in line with those.  Wouldn't want to disappoint any recipients! Wink

    Oh and for anyone else who wants to do this, I used black eyeliner (not waterproof).  It was pretty easy to wipe off if the person writing made a little mistake.

    Those are awesome! I totally assumed that you photoshopped the words onto your foreheads, so kudos for you for actually doing it! :) Your guests are going to be so psyched to get those in the mail... much more exciting than my boring STDs!

    Nursey - I saw something like it on another wedding board when I googled "Save the Date" ideas.

    That, is freakin' adorable. :) Very creative!

    And while I'm thinking of STDs, is it alright if my STDs don't have the venue printed on them (as long as my invitations do?)

    Ours don't have the venue.  Just the city and state.  I don't think it's customary to put the venue on the STDs, though I may be wrong.
