Wedding placecards

The wedding. Yes, it’s looming and I’m getting there. These are the place cards. They were all going to be the same but I didn’t have enough of the swirly paper left after the invites - which used most of a full sheet each - so decided to make the men’s cards using the more masculine striped paper and without the ribbon. The names are printed on good quality printer paper (my printer has a hissy fit if you put cardstock in it) in a colour that is as near to Elegant Eggplant as I could get. The Elegant Eggplant panels are distressed ever so slightly.

You've not seen the invites yet, have you? Maybe next time...
