    Hi,
    I think I have massively under-budgeted for save the dates, invites etc as I forgot about stamps so we've decided to make our own.
    I was just wondering:
    1. Where any of you ladies shop for supplies (I live in Birmingham if that helps)
    2. Where you get your ideas from
    3. Is there any styles that would work out less expensive/any styles to avoid because they work out more expensive

    Thanks :)

    U could use tea bags to give a rustic look and stamps are always good, u can get personalised ones at most craft websites, eb@y , @m@zon etc , we got a hole punch for the top and weaves some brown twine thru so ppl could hang them

    I am making my own (pictures in my album) and I got all of my bits for invites and save the dates from the bay and the Am Zon. You can find sooooooo much on those sites!! I paid £102 for all my supplies and that has included;

    Card
    Paper
    Pens
    Gems
    Butterfly bits
    Glue
    Paper trimmer
    Stencils
    RSVP cards and envelopes
    Envelopes
    Ink Cartridges
    Magnetic strips
    Magnetic strips

    I made 85 Save the dates and need to make 86 (maybe more) invites.

    So for 171 bits it has cost me about 60p per item.
