Nautical Themed Wedding ceremony Favor Field Tutorial:  Meeting Line Methodology

When you must make 82 desk favors, you must have a plan.  I selected to make use of an meeting line technique that I developed again once I was making memento menus for BMW company banquets.  It actually helps to have a delegated field or storage spot when you’re making in bulk.  Hold all of your instruments, papers, paint, dies, embossing folders, and many others. in that field.  That means you don’t have them scattered everywhere in the home.

Right here’s how I sort out this kind of process:

• First, reduce all of the field bases.  Field tops measured 5 3/8″ sq. whereas field tops measured 5 1/2″ sq..
• Subsequent, emboss all of the field tops.  I did these 10-20 at a time, as I discovered a second right here and there.
• Then, dry brush all of the field tops and put aside to dry.
• Whereas the field tops are drying, rating, fold, reduce and assemble the field bottoms.
• Now, rating, fold, reduce and assemble the field tops.
• Subsequent, reduce the liner sheets for the field bottoms.
• Then adhere all of the liner sheets for the field bottoms.
• Stamp the shell picture as soon as, scan into your pc and measurement to suit the mission. Then you possibly can copy/paste and print out an entire web page of stamped photos as an alternative of stamping the identical picture 82 instances!
• Compose and measurement the message in the identical means, then print on vellum.

After getting all of the items ready, the meeting goes fairly rapidly.  Muscle reminiscence lets you go sooner and sooner whenever you repeat the identical process again and again.

The tutorial for the field we’re making immediately is a little more elegant than those I made for the marriage, and takes only a bit extra time.  I made a decision to create a field with an inside folded edge for 2 causes.  One: it seems to be higher, and two: it’s sturdier.  I want I had considered this earlier than the marriage, nevertheless it truly dawned on me on the marriage ceremony reception.  Subsequent time I’ll do higher!

In fact, you should use any colour cardstock on your field base.  When you don’t wish to emboss, you possibly can simply cowl the field with fairly paper, or go away it plain and costume it up with ribbon, flowers and a bit tag.  The probabilities are countless!

Nicely, my dryer simply buzzed, so I’d greatest go get one other load of laundry going.  At the very least I’m by no means bored!

Thanks for stopping by!

Cheerio,
