I know I am such a coppy cat...

Original post by curly2003

...but I just finished a trial for Sonicstef's (and many other's) placecard candles and it was sooooooooooooooooo time consuming. I don't think I'm gonna make them. Does anyone have a template I could use that is in MS Word and not MS Publisher? And I went to Michael's and they sell the Vellum by THE SHEET!!!! there must be a better way to do this Thanks!!

OK Stef Thanks, I'll cut them on my own-I don't think it's a major project, but I could be wrong.
Let's see

Don't forget to add the additional hour everytime someone decides to
1. RSVP late
2. Bring a different guest
3. Bring an EXTRA guest

And then you have to fish out the ones you jus finished, rip off the vellum, repeint a new strip, and redo it.

Regarding the font:
I used Copperplate Gothic
I wanted something scripty, like Bickham, but I remembered hearing the coordinator at Stef's wedding saying that the scripty font was hard for the guests to read when they were all lined up.

I wish I had a picture they are so pretty and it is so easy, I bout the candles for 25 cents each ans the labels were 6.oo for a package ...

I have very small victorian baskets which I will fill with jelly bean, or hershey kisses. I am going to wrap them up in a sachet bag..

Ok I am lost here! How the heck do you cut the vellum? I dont get the whole cut it for each candle thing. I am NOT a creative person, I need this spelled out for me big time. THANKS LADIES!

another idea for place cards is have the bakery make them out of white chocolate and write the guests names on it with icy. its a good idea if you are having a winter wedding. i am considering it for mine.
