I discovered that some beads are not what I’d thought so the ring pillow will continue pending until I get the right ones. Instead I’ve been working on the name cards for the tables. We decided that the best idea was to make the cards and then print the names onto adhesive labels and add them a few days before the wedding. This way we can keep the last-minute work to a minimum and late changes to the guest list won’t become a drama … A VERY GOOD THING for mothers of the bride!
HOW TO MAKE:
Elizabeth’s Name Cards
- Galeria Acrylic Pad 300gsm
- Ribbon Roses
- Paper covered stem wire
- Guillotine, bone folder, needle and thread, glue
Cut up a sheet of the textured paper into 10 x 10cm squares.
Score through the centre of each square to make a fold line.
Stitch on the two ribbon roses and glue on the tendril.
Fold on the scored line to make an A-frame card of 10 x 5cm.
