I've always wanted to make custom baby announcements and photo wedding invitations. Its something I've thought about but always said I'd do it when... Well I guess "when" has arrived. After doing my children's announcements and other family members invitations I'm getting some people interested in having me make some for them. Where is a good place to go for info on getting this started as a business and not just a hobby? I don't even know really what specific questions to ask. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
Rachel

Oh, that looks like a fun group to join. I think I'll go check it out.

Rachel, I have done quite a bit of custom invitations and announcements so I'd be happy to chat with you a little bit too if you'd like. :)
