DIY Save the Dates

We were on a tight budget for our wedding, but didn't want it to look that way. One little way of cutting costs was with the Save the Dates. They are normally like $1 a piece, then 44 cent stamps! That can really add up. So, I had the idea to make postcards. This way, its environmentally a little bit better (no envelope, less paper) and much cheaper.

We found a site online, picked a picture, wrote whatever we wanted on the front and back, and ordered. They were very cheap, but did not look it. Plus, postcard stamps are only 28 cents, instead of 44! It was a great idea that i thought should be passed on =)
