do you feel lucky?

you know those little scratch off lottery cards? and how that idea has crept into some whimsical wedding stationary, like save the dates and such? like these:

cute, yes? fun? definitely. and you know what’s even better? wait for it…you can make them yourself!

i know!

thanks to kimberly michelle [yup, that's mrs. lemon from the 'bee!], who alerted me to today’s post on idiy, with a little liquid washing soap and metallic paint, you too, can have custom scratcher tickets of your very own!

i think this is a fabulous little project and i think i just figured out what i’ll be doing for my christmas cards this year! check out idiy for a link to the tutorial and make your own luck today!

okay, that was completely cheesy.

  1. Oh no, please don’t become trendy. I have been incubating a similar idea for a while now!!

    i wouldn’t worry anna! remember you’re constantly surrounded by all things wedding ideas so things will begin to pop up again and again, but most likely your guests haven’t seen most of them. so if you’ve got your heart set on doing these, by all means do them! it’ll probably be the first time your guests have seen them in that application!
