Lilac and Lilies Place Card
DIY Wedding Craft Idea

You will need:

White card
Lilac pearl card
Plain parchment paper
White angelwire
White paper lilies with stems
Computer with printing facilities
Embossing tool and pad
Glue dots
Double sided tape
Glue
Scissors
Paper trimmer (with scallop edge blade included)

To make the place card:

1. Using word processing software, print out the guests' names onto parchment paper. Choose the same font you have used for the table plan.

2. Using the scallop edge blade cut out the guests’ names leaving a wide border.

3. Using the embossing tool, emboss a swirled line around the bottom right corner.

4. Cut out a piece of the pearl lilac card for each name. Again leave a wide border.

5. Cover each piece of lilac card in the angelwire.

6. Stick the parchment to the lilac card in the centre using glue dots.

7. Curve the stems of the lilies to the right as shown so that they will fit across the top of the name. Stick the top left using the glue dots.

8. Cut a piece of the white card so that once folded in half will be big enough to stick your name to. Stick the lilac card to the place card using double sided tape. Make sure all of the place cards are the same size. Reduce the size of the font for a longer name.
