Map in progress!

In a little more than a week we should be getting our invitations to mail out. There are 2 projects that I have in mind to add to them.

#1 A Map
I think that everyone will have a pretty easy time finding The Henry Ford, but since the wedding is after the museum is closed, everyone will be parking in the back lot, which isn't too hard to find if you've gone quite a few times, but it can be a little confusing if you've never gone. Emily sent me a map of the campus, so all day today I've been working on editing it. Here is what I've got done so far:
As you can see the time line at the top needs to be finished, and I want to add some other small touches to wrap them in with the design of our invitations. This would be the front of the map card, and then on the back I'm planning on adding text directions. What do you guys think about the time line? I saw it on a custom map on etsy and thought it looked cute, but now when I'm looking at it I'm not so sure.


#2 Lightbox
You may remember a post from a while back where I said that I was working on calligraphy. I have to be honest and say I haven't been practicing. AT ALL. I really still want a calligraphy look and I had a few ideas of how to go about it. I was going to send the envelopes through our printer, printing in a script font in a color very close to the envelopes so I could write them in pen, but the more I thought about it the more I worried about it. The envelopes will probably be a little larger than normal size, and I don't think I'll have a template in word that will print how I'd like them to. I didn't order a huge amount of extra envelopes so I wouldn't be able to afford to make very many mistakes. That brings me to what I think I'm going to do! I'm going to try to make myself a little light box, probably using these directions here. Then I'll print out everyone address and use the light box to write it on the envelopes!

I'll probably use this font, it's very pretty don't you think?
