guess what?! more drama!

that so sucks...I'm so sorry...do you have a pitcure of your invites I could see so I can help you brainstorm???

Can you reprint them??? I know I made my mom's friends invites for her daughter's sweet 16 and I bought the vellum seperately at Staples and Printed it myself then we got 4 or us together and assembled them They were the exact invites you have above...that way all you do it print it...or Staples can print it...but I def. had them cut it for like $11 or something for like 100 invites.  Just a thought...

August 9th??? ummmm...how many invites do you have??

I'm sorry but let me call the staples by me to get a general time span..

ok...maybe not...they said they can't print on vellum...Like I said I printed them myslef...I might have the template at home if you want me to send it to you...and I just had them precut the vellum...it took me like a day to print cause once I set it up I printed like 25 at a time...

apparently the reason the don't and Kinkos doesn't print on vellum is because they have laser printers... and that causes a problem with the ink adhereing to vellum...

 How do you print on vellum?

 Before printing, set your margins and test the type placement by printing copies on white paper test sheets and aligning with the vellum over a light source.

Warm up your printer. Toner adheres to paper by a heat fusion process. If the printer is not heated up properly or the vellum stock is cold, you may not achieve optimal results. Run another small job first to make sure the machine is warmed up.

Verify that your printer is not set to Draft mode. Use the highest dpi setting on your printer, 600 or 1200 dpi is best.

Allow several seconds for drying time before handling any printed vellum stock.

but this says otherwise...

1. For the best printing results, we recommend that you:
2. Use a laser printer or copier. Laser printers and copiers use heat and pressure to transfer toner to paper, and this provides a crisp, clean imprint on vellum.
3. Print a sample on inexpensive, blank paper first to make sure your layout and alignment will print the way you want it to.
4. Use the manual feed tray of your printer and, to ensure that the vellum feeds in correctly, print the sheets one at a time.
5. If you are using a designed vellum and don’t know how to align your paper in the manual feed tray, experiment with a blank sheet of inexpensive paper first. Pencil in an arrow or other mark on one end of the paper, and then print a sample to make sure you know how to insert your paper correctly.

You could do layering. Meaning print another color and cut it a little smaller than the bottom layer. Cover the whole invite with this piece of paper , then just glue it. I think it would look good!

If you print them yourslef and then need then cut you take them to Kinko's to use their paper cutter for free...OR Have you asked Kinkos if they can print on velum? I wanted them to print 75 pages front and back in color with my paper and it was quoted at 90.00!!!

I called kinkos for her...(I'm avoiding doing my work) lol but anyways they said they won't print on Vellum same thing as staples...

Ha Ha thats funny...I never feel like working...I wish I could take the next month off to do wedding stuff!

Sam...can you use your company printer (if its not laser) some places will let you!
