Here's a DIY I just made - they're "Save the Month" packages -- I didn't have a date from Disney at the time, but my family kept asking and asking and asking about the wedding (they couldn't wait anymore!) -- so I had to send something to get them off my back!



SAVE THE MONTH CONTENTS

1. Save the Month Card with Door that "opens"
2. Teacup + Saucer
3. Butter Cookies wrapped and boxed with Eat Me tag
4. Organic Jasmine or Cranberry tea in miniature bottle with Drink Me tag
5. Personalized Note to recipient

Thanks everyone!! I'm willing to do any projects for anyone anytime!!

I'm actually in the process of getting a business going and trying to get away from the job I'm at now, as it's very stressful and not so good when I'm trying to and so close to finishing school. So anyone that wants to be my first order feel free

 

[clarabella]

WOW these are all so lovely - you guys are such inspirations

We have just started sending out our 'save the dates' so I can show you the first DIY project. We decided to use the fairytale castle as our subtle Disney theme for the UK reception (didn't want to rub it in too much that they weren't invited to Florida )

I have to say a big thanks to my mum who made all the save the dates herself, I will try to do better with the invites!

How do I get my computer to make the Walt Disney font.

 

[DisneyDream88]

Google 'Walt Disney font' and there are font files you can download and then install on your computer or drag to the font file.

 

[quandrea]

Hi Ladies, just read the whole thread. Does anyone have any ideas for an UP themed wedding. I am going to make placecards for the reception at Grand Floridian Cafe and tags for my favours. I have a logo of Carl and Ellie made on the Disigns board that I`m using for those. I`m not that crafty, but I`d like some special touches that don`t cost a fortune. It`s for a 10 year VR and there will only be nine of us (me and dh, our three kids, 7,2,2 and my two sisters and parents). Give me some idease please.

It's a birthday party, but you can still get ideas from it

 

[quandrea]

Thanks for that. The party is amazing. I may try the ballon wreath, but smaller and use them for chair decorations. I already have the grape soda pins. The children will be carrying balloons instead of flowers. I had considered an Up cake, but it may be too much money. There are some great ideas on this thread, but they are Mickeyish (is that a word?) I may go ahead anyway, because who cares, right?

I'm still having no luck with the Disney font. I found a downloadable file online. I downloaded it and now I have no idea how to use it so that I can type what I want. Can anyone help this computer challenged woman?
