We had a wonderful wedding... and its true what they say "Its the best day of your life" Honestly it couldn't have been more perfect. (Well for one exception- but still) Our guests were extremely impressed with everything and we were so happy to share it with them. They obviously deserved lots of thank yous for the compliments and their generous wedding gifts.
I though a nice Thank you card design was what they deserved for the least. So I went ahead and designed these:
Front
Back
Since I had both french and English invitations, I didn't want to have the hassle of 2 languages so I simply wrote a "Merci" I think the English people get the point. Right?
I'm one of those that happens to receive VistaPrint offers and took advantage of the FREE postcard offer. I downloaded the template on my computer and designed the card. I put the back (Merci) on the part where generally you would write a message on a postcard and the chandelier on the front of the postcard. When I received the cards they were perfect... only a little technicality - the front is glossy so I have to write using a ball point or permanent pen. So if you happen to use Vista print postcards - make sure you place the part of there card where you want to write on the back of the postcard and not the front. :) Learn from my mistakes.
So here is the tally of my thank you card costs:
