I am somewhat pleased with myself (and Jason). I wish you could see how nice the card stock is. We used Phaeton for the text, as well as a hand-drawn version of it on the envelopes. I wasn’t fully happy with the envelopes (in my dreams Love, Jenna would have calligraphed them) but we were in a super hurry on account of leaving them so late so what can ya do! They have a sort-of nice rubber stamp quality to them.
The little animals are red pandas, which we hand-fed at Wellington Zoo the the day we got engaged, I posted about it here. They’re so cute! In New Zealand you get to do cool stuff like that ‘cos you don’t have to worry about getting sued.

Liss – I do love Melbourne! I feel I should defend NZ but not an hour ago I was talking about how nationalism is weird. So lets not compare our countries, they’re both awesome! ;)
Oh god, could I be anymore of a cheergerm? Haha.
OMG! YOU’RE Jason’s Kate! *slaps forehead* I’ve been following your blog for a while now, and I never clicked until now, until I saw Jason’s last name on your invitation cards (CONGRATULATIONS BTW!). I think I actually met you like, once, when I ran into Jason a while back and he introduced you to me. :D I finally found him again on Imaginary Network. Sorry if you don’t remember me, it was a long time ago when we met!
