Tools:

Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop (or whatever else you want to use)
Champagne metallic cardstock paper from paperandmore.com
Fiskars rotary cutter with straight blade
Corner punch

Since we didn’t have a traditional American ceremony, we didn’t make programs with "Thank You"s in them. So we put them on the back of the dinner menu. I used the same dragon/phoenix tail vector that I designed for the website and invitation enclosures.

This is the computer draft (a little blurry here due to the high resolution being shrunk to website size). We thanked our representative, parents, bridal party, DJ (a friend), and the MC (a friend). The top righthand side gave homage to our backgrounds. It said "Thank You" in English and in Vietnamese.

First, I printed the dinner menu on the cardstock, then I fed the paper back through the printer (after proper drying) to print the thank you side. Once they were printed and dried, they were cut to size and then the corner punch was used to round off all the corners. Here is the finished product.
