I know! I just finished printing 102 menus, the photo frame directions and am about to tackle the place cards/vellum bags with truffles. Damn I wish we could afford to pay for someone to do this...our guests better love the sh!t we make!

We're almost there Chris...almost there!

Big hugs,
Sasha

I did this yesterday and finally finished them!

I overlapped the back and used hot glue. everything else I tried (double-sided tape, vellum tape, spray glue) didn't work nicely. This isn't great either, but once they are light, it's not '*too* bad. I don't know what else to do.

If I had to do it over, I'd do something else.

scratch the hot glue. apparently when the glass gets hot, the glue no longer sticks. I now have 65 useless votive placecards.

the tape isn't too bad---i've stuck with it (no pun intended) and it just shows through a little.
