Description
The submitter told the following story about the artifact's creation: "We only had $500 for the wedding (including my dress and food), so I made our invitations myself. We had a deluxe clipart CD, (which was pretty exciting in the 90s!) so we had a whole three different picnic ant graphics to pick from. I think maybe we had someone proofread it. Man, I hope we at least had someone proofread it! The invitations cost about twenty bucks total because I photocopied them at work (which maybe I shouldn't admit even now). The invitation was pretty much all me, and boy does it show!"
