YES, YOU SUPPLY THE STOCK.
You supply your stationery and envelopes for me to write on. I write on your printed invitations, envelopes, place cards etc from your stationery supplier/printer. Depending on the job I have some card stock in house and can supply some blank place cards and depending what you require, some envelope stock as well.
YES, PLEASE SUPPLY SPARES OR OVERS
You need to include about 20% extra stock or spares, add at least 10-20 spares as all stock/paper/card are different and react differently to inks, so a test is always required. When writing by hand and using a dip pen and ink, you need to account for surprise splatter, error and those last-minute additions!
