How do you Ptouch? You're invited

Happy Friday! 

Doesn't it just feel easier to get up in the morning during the summer time? During winter I could sleep all day, but come summer 7:00am hits a little easier. The past few weeks I have been sending out wedding invitations. I'll be the first to tell you, easier said then done. However after a few trials and some errors to follow, I think I have mastered how to send out beautiful invitations and do it TIME EFFICIENTLY. So if you're getting married, hosting a shower, throwing a party, sending out birth announcements, graduation invites, or getting a head start on those holiday cards - this blog is for you. 

For addressing all of my invitations, both the outside address and the RSVP card address I used the PTP750W. However, you can use any PC/Mac connectable label maker! 


This first photo is of the RSVP card. I used a TZe145 label for these. This is a 3/4" white on clear label. I was struggling to find a pen that would show on this dark envelope, this really made it pop! Click the photo above to shop this fabulous label. 


Most importantly, this photo shows you my time-saving-secret! However I love my blog readers too much to keep this helpful tool all to myself. Several things AUTO CUT SAVES LIVES! Almost as many lives as multi-printing. To keep things quick I simply but in my return address and then made about 100 copies of this label within minutes! Each one was automatically cut to size, and this great "half cut" feature you see, starts the first cut for you to make them extremely easy to peal apart.

For the outside addresses I used a LMe155. This is a 1" white on clear label tape. This gave me a little bit more space to keep the addresses large enough to see clearly and I was able to use a fun font for the names. Click the photo to shop! 

Lastly, for our return addresses I used a customized stamp! This saved so much time and you can pick a style that fits for you. Pictured here are two different styles of a customized stamp. You can see I played around with font and size! If you have a stamp creator or can find use for one - I would highly recommend. Click the photo to see what stamp sizes are available. Keep in mind - these are boxes of 6 blank stamps :) One last tip I will give you, is to get an envelope moistener!! Seriously, so much better. While you cant get this through us, walmart, hallmark, target, or any major retailer would have them. 

Of course I couldn't forget about our #packageart requests. Below are my two favorite drawings as of recently. 

This was a request of "paradise" notice there is no WiFi connection there ;) 

This was a request for "something that makes you happy". It's all about perspective!
