Re: DIY Layered Wedding Programs

I forgot how beautiful these layered invitations were!! Now that I'm actuallly thinking about my invitations, these seem like a good idea. Any ideas how I can incorporate my Caribbean Valentine theme into these DIY layered invitations?

I am not sure if I'll be able to do these - they look complicated - but I'm going to give it a go!!

I have fallen in love with the design of that program. That's what people around here would consider "different" and that's EXACTLY what I'm going for. This site is such a blessing!!!!!

Re: DIY Layered Wedding Programs

You're welcome ladies!

Djimonsmom the time really depends on how many you're making. For my trial the most time-consuming part was the formatting. I cut them myself but for the final product I'll more than likely use Kinko's for that. Then its just the assembly. I'm thinking we'll do teams:
stackers
hole-punchers
ribbons

Re: DIY Layered Wedding Programs

Question ladies! Quick before I order (please)

I am getting burgundy backing (card stock), cream paper for inserts, gold ribbon ...now here is the question ...I found gold vellum ...is the gold vellum over kill and I should just stick with the cream vellum...or do you think the gold vellum will give pazazz?

Keep it simple T. Gold vellum is definitely overkill, in my humble opinion.

Re: DIY Layered Wedding Programs

Thanks dear! It will save money too .. :) Cause I wouldn't have to order it. Only reason why I'm ordering the burgundy is bc I couldn't find it in Office Depot ...Imma check Staples to first.

So .... Burgundy backing, cream inserts/burgundy writing, and gold bow?

I agree with Ginoue on the colors. Here is my inspiration photo:

I haven't but one together, just lined everything up for formatting.

Re: DIY Layered Wedding Programs

I'm in love with the layered thing! Are you using vellum too? Doesn't look like it's used with this one, and I still like it ...saving more money!

Re: DIY Layered Wedding Programs

Ladies, where can i find the bone scorer? Is there another name for it? I've searched Staples and Office Depot and can't find it under this name.

[quote="bamabride"]I'm cutting and pasting the instructions I typed up for myself. I'm anal, I know. If anything confuses you, also check out the links future posted here in this topic -- they should fill in the gaps. And of course, let me know if I can answer any questions.

LAYERED WEDDING PROGRAM BOOKLETS
BONE SCORER: Use to make neat and even crease/fold in cardstock flap that folds over the program.

Step-by-Step Instructions

STEP 1: Using bone scorer, fold about a 1-inch flap at the top of the cardstock backing.

Ladies,

On each individual sheet, what size font did you use? I'm running into some issues with trying to get everything to fit onto the pages.

Ladies,
If anyone is interested, I ordered invitation and program kits from this site invitationpaper.com I think their prices are reasonable for diy projects.

Re: DIY Layered Wedding Programs

Thanks atown! I think I may go that route. I have to order a sample to check out how their crimson red looks 1st though.

Djimonsmom, I used whatever font size was on the template I sent with Crystal and Marlon. I played around with different fonts and sizes so all my info would fit. HTH!
