Wedding Invitations (Blank) – $100
5×7″ pink and brown cardstock ready to be made into wedding (or other) invitations. Paper has pretty butterfly and flower design. I have enough materials for approx. 150 invitations, including ribbon to assemble, as well as blank white response cards.
I think the email exchange between Leslie and me is the best possible commentary:
Leslie: BLANK wedding invitations, you say? Blank, that is, except for the NAMES boldly emblazoned across the bottom – “Becky and Tim”.
I’m getting married soon, and this seemed like such a good deal. Being cautious of those kooky Craigslisters out there (thanks to your blog), I thought it best to first inquire as to this young ladies definition of “blank”. You guessed it – blank means “blank except for our names on the front”. She was quite the “Helpy Helperton”, though. She offered several suggestions as to how I might overcome this very minor issue. After asking if it was possible that my name was Becky and my fiancee’s name was Tim, she informed me I could either cross it out and write our names underneath or simply put a sticker over it and write our names on that.
Yeah, this seems like just the right way to start out your new lives together. Maybe we should just change our names to Becky and Tim.
YSaC: Please tell me that the “blank” response cards also say “Becky and Tim” on them … because that would be awesome.
Leslie: Well, I suppose if you’re already crossing out the names on the front….what’s a few hundred more on the “blank” response cards?
My aggravation got the better of me, so I opted to send Becky the link to the Webster’s definition of “blank”.
She responded with “so you aren’t interested in the invitations? This is a real money saver.” I pray my sanity holds fast so I don’t have to use my daily allotment of curse words on one person. I don’t even think I need to ask why it is that things didn’t work out between with she and Tim’s nuptials. I’m sure your IQ must fall a few points each day when you live with someone like that.
Team Tim!
YSaC: Hang onto her email address. You’ll need it when you send her a link to the entry on the blog!
Leslie: Oh, I fully intend to link her to the posting. I’m from the South, so anytime we do/say something about someone else that’s not so kind, we just begin or end the sentence with “Bless Her Heart”.
Yes, bless her heart. Bless her sweet, sweet, unsure of the meaning of “blank” heart.
