Our Wedding Invitation PIP

Since they are finally done I wanted to post a picture of our invite!  I think they turned out really well and it was worth all the time to make them myself.  They ended up costing less than $2 each which I think is pretty freaking awesome!  Sorry the pic isnt the best ever...did it quickly with my phone.  If you click the pic it should open a larger image.

    <div>I got really good deals on our paper and used a couple coupons/groupons.  The pink paper was .26/sheet (found an awesome deal online with free shipping), the black and the white were .11/sheet(plus 20% off that at Michaels).  The template for the petal card was free online for my cricut.  The fonts were all free online.  I printed them at home.  The adhesive was $3 and enough for all the invites.  The envelopes (the most expenisve thing) were .28 each but I saved 10% on them at Archivers.  I bought a groupon for Vista Print and got my RSVP postcards from there so they ended up being like .08/each.  Its actually under a $1 I guess, unless I am forgetting something but I dont think I am.  (I didnt include the price of ink bc I didnt have to buy it for the invites, already had it on hand, same with my cricut stuff.)  Of course I did put a decent amount of time and energy into them but it totally worth it!  <div>
