I got this idea from Martha Stewart. We took this picture using a 10 second self-timer on my digital camera. We pinned an old sheet on the wall to get a blank background. Set two chairs together and threw a blanet over them to look somewhat professional. I had a really hard time finding rubber stamps to stamp over our L-O-V-E shaped fingers so I improvised Martha's idea. Since "true" has four letters and "true love" is engagement-y we used this phrase instead to incorporate our fingers.
For the back of the cards I went to Office Depot and found silver shiny paper that matched our black and white photo. The girl found a palm tree and added that to upper left hand corner. I stamped on our wedding date with red acrylic ink. I used a paper cutter to trim the edges of the paper so it would fit in the corresponding red envelopes.
*rubber stamps and paper cutter borrowed from Jess's lovely sister. Thanks! =)
P.S. I am not DIY'ing our invitations...it took me FOREVER to do these darned save the dates!
Plus I found invitations I absolutely love online and will probably just order those.
