Stamping Wedding Favors

My cousin, Melissa, is getting married soon, and we planned a month ago to make her wedding favors.  We made a few prototypes, picked our favorite one and set a date to get together.  It was a full day of crafting, but we got a system going and definitely started moving along.

I stamped, and Melissa punched and punched and punched...

Once all of the circles and scallops were done, we got to work assembling.  It took a little experimenting with adhesive, but once we made our decision, we were ready to go.  

Late afternoon we needed a little pick me up and broke out the licorice, but we did manage to stop for a delicious lunch and had leftovers for our supper break.   

We had our system down by this time - I did ribbon and passed the jars to Melissa who finished everything and boxed them back up.  What you can't see are the three huge boxes behind us filled with finished jars!

It was a fun day of "work", and I am looking forward to Melissa's and Jake's wedding in a few weeks!

Wedding Favor

A good friend of mine will be getting married soon,  and she has asked me to help her figure out favor boxes.  So I grabbed my catalog and went right to the Lovely Letters alphabet set.  I used a scrap of retired Pale Plum cardstock because it is pretty close to our wisteria bridesmaid dresses and stamped it with Perfect Plum.  Stamping off once before stamping the ampersand allowed me to overlap the letters so everything would fit on the Decorative Label Punch without seeming too crowded.  I think the Old Olive ribbon works well for her mossy green accent color.
