Hi, it is Christine here today with some place markers using Keepsake Envelopes. The idea is that you could create personalised envelopes for your guests who could take them home if they wish.
There is an assortment of sizes in a bag of Keepsake Envelopes which is very handy, I selected two of the smallest, printed my parents names onto white card and cut them to size to insert into the envelopes.
I then placed a wooden embellishment into each envelope.
These wooden blocks are perfect as place markers, I decorated them with some Cosmo Cricket Honky Tonk paper, easily affixed with MyStik® Permanent Strips.
The envelopes are secured closed with a brad and adhered a matching piece of patterned paper to the back.
To decorate the wooden markers, I die cut flowers, Bitty Blossoms and leaves – Fall Foliage. To ensure they stick firmly in place Dodz™ Small are perfect.
The finished decorated place markers.
Thank you for joining me today and remember to stop by the website to see the huge array of Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® products.
Supplies:
