I wanted them to have a layered look, as well as incorporate our tangerine color, and I think I pulled it off! Another thing that I found to be so difficult was the design/look of the inserts. I LOVE my Upsy Daisy stamp design and I wanted to incorporate it somehow. However, the stamp is rather large and the inserts are smaller. So I was able to use my embossing ink from my embossing project, and produce a watermark on my inserts like so..
I love how they turned out! No more stressing over these! Well at least at far as design =) I didn't put a watermark on my directions insert since it has such a large map on it already. I'm really proud of this map too. I worked quite a few hours on it, and it came out great. Here is how I made the map..
Directions on Making a Map:
- Using Google Map, type in the location of your wedding location(s). Zoom in.
- Press the "Print Scrn" button on your keyboard to copy your image.
- Open Microsoft Powerpoint, and paste your image on to a slide.
- Insert lines, images etc., and outline the streets, landmarks, rivers and locations of significance that will help your guests find your location. I included a river, a park, and a landmark on mine to help.
- Label accordingly. Maybe even make a Key.
- Now with your outlines, labels and images in place, click on the pasted Google map, and delete it. You'll be left with your map.

Your Envelope liners are SO awesome!!! I found a piece of scrapbook paper I love and wanted to incorporate it into my invites somehow, and I think you just answered my question!
