SOooooo excited. I got the save the date samples I ordered- postcards from zazzle.com I am super picky about fonts and wanted to design everything myself, which I did in...yeah POWEPOINT! (making the pics as big as a could and then copy and pasting them into paint to save) with fonts from dafont.com saved it as a picture and uploaded it on zazzle, they came out looking perfect! total price (since we are getting more than 100) is .65 cents a piece!!!! add on teh 28 cents for a postcard stamp and you are looking at 93 cents per save the date. Pretty rockin deal if you ask me, and they are completely personalized. I am really happy :)

    the names and location are in Fairfax station NF, the other stuff in caps is AR Bonnie and the date is in Fontleroy Brown NF. I made the berry stamps from vintage post cards, ruber stams and other things and I shamelessly stole the circle (with the dots on the inside of it) from somewhere or other on the internet. To get a border around everything you have to copy it all into paint and then paste it all back into powerpoint as one image then you add a border (I put the red one on), and made all of the pictures into sepia, which is easy to do in powerpoint. I added the gray behind all of that on zazzle, you just have to hit background and add a color. They also have a ton of formats on their website though if people want something ready made, and you can add things and personalize them as much or as little as you want.

    Thanks for all the info!  FI and I won't be taking our engagement photos until late August, but I'm starting to mess with STD templates.  I love the classic rustic vibe of your wedding, your STDs are a total inspiration!  Smile

    Woo Fontleroy! :D. That's a great photo of the two of you on the top right, and I like the splash of color from the ... cherries (it's too small so I can't tell what they are, sry).
