Hi everyone, I’m back and continuing the march towards Spring! I found another cute, simple idea for your wedding escort cards. These feature vintage stamps and are sure to make your wedding wall or table look gorgeous.
I think vintage stamps look great on either white or brown bag kraft envelopes. For this project I selected Avon brilliant white linen.
You need some vintage stamps. The more variety in color you can find, the better.
I used a fine tip (10) Sakura Pigment calligraphy marker to write guests names in a relaxed, lower case cursive. Very fun style to go with the stamps.
Apply more than one stamp to each escort card envelope… The contrasting colors look nice, also the shapes. Portrait vs. landscape.
Once the envelopes are completed they look great either sitting neatly arranged on an escort card table or on a wall. You can either slip the table assignment inside the envelope, or you can save a little and indicate it in the left bottom corner.
Thanks for reading and I’ll see you next time!
