200 Dimensionals, 640 inches of silver cording, and the 40 announcements and stamped envelopes for my niece are finished. She wanted her picture on the front, muted with a vellum overlay, and in her school colors, of course! Oval shaped picture was created in Adobe PhotoShop Elements, the junior (old) version, 2.0, printed 4 to a page in a card maker program I've had for years. Vellum layer with sentiment was also sent through the printer, printed 4 to a page in the same card program, and trimmed for each card. Sorry, I've blurred the high school name for privacy reasons, but wanted to share how easy it is to personalize and make your own announcements for the fraction of the cost of printed ones. Sure, there is time involved, but there is also personal care in the finished product.
Supplies: All SU! Cardstock: Brushed Silver, Brilliant Blue, Whisper White, Cardstock Vellum, Stamp set: grad cap from Sketch and Event (retired) Ink: Brilliant Blue, Accessories: Silver Brads, Silver cord, Dimensionals, Envelopes
