I really need some help.

I have searched through google to try and find a custom made stencil, but am lost.  I am going to be making some hand made invitations for a friend of mines parents' anniversary.    It is going to be on card stock and I'm using my stencil paints although I don't recall what type of paint they were.. latex?   Anyways, I have only found one place that I makes custom stencils and it was going to be almost 200 dollars for the one stencil.   There are 8 lines in it, basically I need the entire stencil text as a block because I am doing about 100 invites by hand.

Does anyone know where I could find something like this or does anyone have any ideas?  I would appreciate it so much!

Unfortunately, it's rather expensive to create a one off laser stencil like you are describing, and if it's small text you want, I can't think of a way other than laser cutting to get the results you will want.  I don't know who you've tried so far, but if you really need this stencil, I would try contacting LaserRaser, LaserExcel, and Designer Stencils.  Those are the places I know of who do custom work.  (And if you do find somewhere else, please let me know and I'll add them to my list!)

Are you talking 5x7 or 8x10 size? Stencils can't always be made with lettering that small even with a laser. Have you tried Stencilease.com
they have custom lettering. Their prices are not near that high.
Good Luck
