Embossing on Vellum
I thought that I would share the table numbers that I made for an upcoming St. Patrick's Day wedding. I used a heavyweight vellum and on the backside dry embossed the shamrocks. By working on the back side, it really shows up on the front side.
I punched the scalloped border across the top and once adhered together, they will look like this.
It's quick and easy to emboss on vellum and this was a great way to personalize the St. Patrick's Day theme without going overboard.
Sheila,
ReplyDeleteThat is just beautiful and elegant! A St. Patrick's Day wedding...now why didn't I think of that?
Is it wrapped around a candle? or something else to keep it upright?
Yes, they get wrapped around a tea candle in a glass votive (fire code so that they were able to use them). That way the flame shows through and gives off a really soft light. I think they will look wonderful. She is supposed to send photos of the tables so I'll share the happy event. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely Beautiful!!!
