Do it Yourself Wedding Invitations For the Budget-Conscious Couple

0 comments

After setting the wedding date and deciding on the place where you want to get married, another wedding detail to deal with is the wedding invitation. Surely, you must want something that is unique and personal. You can find many sources online or you can try going to a printing company that does this sort of thing. You can also order wedding invitation catalogues, or you may find inspiration in your local bookstore. If you are on a tight budget, though, do-it-yourself wedding invitations may work for you perfectly.

Before you proceed with any of the above, you need to get acquainted first with some basic printing terms. Engraving is, perhaps, one of the most commonly used word that you can encounter while searching for wedding invitations. It is a printing style which utilizes metal plates to stamp the paper with so that the letters rise up, giving an embossed, elegant, look. Thermography is another popular term. Thermography is like engraving, too, in that it results to raised letters as well. However, instead of using metal plates, heat is used to come up with the desired effect. Letterpress, on the other hand employs the use of a stamping die that gives the paper an old-fashioned look when pressed against the paper. The most common type of printing is offset printing or flat printing. As its name suggests, the letters are not raised at all, and if you are going to print your wedding invitations at home, this is the type of printing that you will be using.

Creating professionally looking wedding invitations yourself is possible. With an aid of a computer, a good quality printer, a word processor, and elegant paper, you can print your own invitations. Besides being able to save a lot, you also can put your creativity at work.

When deciding on a particular design to use for your wedding invites, as much as possible, choose something that is appropriate to the theme or setting of your wedding. If you are planning a beach wedding, for instance, an engraved invitation on white or ecru paper will not be suitable. At the same time, it may lead your invited guests to think that it's going to be a long gown or coat-and-tie affair, when actually it is not.

Before printing multiple copies, proofread your work first so you can be sure you have all the details correctly spelled.

Do it yourself wedding invitations may be a lot cheaper than ready-made invitations, but they still get the same message across --- especially if you send them out ahead of time.

Celebrating the most important moment in your life can be fun and exciting. There are many unique Do It Yourself Wedding Invitations available on the internet for you to choose. The key to a successful wedding event is to incorporate Creative Wedding Ideas and proper planning.

Madden 09 For Xbox 360 Review

0 comments

Madden 09 may be the best madden to date. It has tons of new features and great graphics. My favorite new feature is the "My skill". It has you take 4 test one for Offensive Running, Offensive Passing, Rush Defense, and Pass Defense. Each test test your skill in that area in a neon like field. It give you a rank for each skill called your "Madden IQ".

Then when you play a game it sets the difficulty level to how you did in the test. The best part is if in a game you did great running the ball but bad defending the pass your next game when you run the ball the difficulty will be turned up and next time you are defending the pass the difficulty will go down.

Another new feature is the "EA Rewind". This lets you "rewind" or replay a certain number of plays each game. This feature is more for the people who are new to the game. One thing I noticed while playing this game is they finally got rid of John Maddens annoying voice.=D. Sorry John but 19 years of commentary is enough. John is being replaced with Tom Hammond and Cris Collinsworth who are annoying also but what announcer isn't. Hell there still better then John. Another feature I like about this game is the "rivalry games".

Many maddens before this one have had rivalry games but the difference is that in this game all rivalry(and playoff in dynasty mode) are harder to play. So now Tom Brady can't exactly just plow his way threw the Jets he will have to use some skill. There are also some new Online features. You can now make a "league" which can hold up to 32 players, be password protected and so on.

In a league you can set up a season and even have playoff games against each other. The controls are great the highlight stick is back and better then ever. If there was anything I could change about this game it would be some kind of online fantasy draft. Overall it is a good game and I give it a 8.5 out of 10.

Please message me at razzjets94@aol.com for questions on the game or to request a review for a different game.
