I, Angela, the designer here at STDO, have a secret about one popular save the date ticket magnet. This one:
I made this save the date design near the end of 2015 for a couple based on a photo of an actual ticket that they sent me. And... they didn't even go for it.
But this design was just so awesome, I thought that I'd take a photograph and put it up on the website anyways.
Well, turns out a lot of other people like the design!
Since then I've seen some similar ticket designs, but, it's still hard to match the print quality and thickness of the magnets STDO makes. They aren't crazy thick, but they are certainly a cut above DIY.
(feel free to email angela@savethedateoriginals.com if you are interested in a mailed sample magnet).
That isn't the only popular save the date magnet in the ticket section the website, but it was a surprise how popular it would turn out to be.
On the subject of concert ticket save the dates, here is another recent favorite of mine:
This is actually a version of one of the ticket designs on the website:
But as you can see, the original idea of more of a nice, simple broadway feel. This couple upped the concert factor and it turned out awesome.
This is way STDO still likes to accept requests for experimenting with designs. The results can be fun. Of course, that's also why design proof turn around times are usually 2-3 days. If I stuck to only requests of exactly designs that were already posted, sure, it would be faster. But that's not how I roll.
