(Kim) When Jana and Anna hinted at the idea of shopping, my ears automatically pricked up! We put aside a day during our holidays so that I could go shopping with the girls to look for wedding stuff. We went to a couple of stationary stores to look for the materials for our invitations but really didn't have much luck. I think that aubergine (oobergine according to my Mum!) must be the most difficult colour to find in the world! I had my heart set on a certain product and couldn't find it anywhere. My first thought was that I must be blind because you can buy EVERYTHING in the USA, but I was wrong. Especially since the product I was looking for was from an Australian company! See if you can guess what it is at the Cristina Re site. We looked everywhere for ribbon, embellishments, paper, envelopes and all things wedding invitation but to no avail. I decided I would just see what I could do from home. We did discover the perfect vessel for our "favours" and bought 100 of them. Poor Kim S. (aka Dad #2) had to bring them home for us as we had no room left in our 5 suitcases to bring them home ourselves! I love Michaels!

I love Cristina Re! By the way, we got your gorgeous save the date card today. It's very timely as I have to put in for leave shortly before I get assigned to any projects :)
