#40 Mini Pinwheels

Pinwheels are so cute! I'm toying with the idea of using these as cupcake toppers for the wedding, but Will's on the fence about pinwheels. That's okay, I just wanted to make something cute!

I used the same craft paper that I had for the escort cards again. They sure are getting some mileage! I coloured in the whites after doing a few plain, and I think they look better two-toned, just I'm horrible and colouring evenly. :S Aaand the tape is showing where I stuck the edges and hearts together. I'll use glue next time, but glue is messy too.

Picspam time!

And I've made about 5 total.

#39 Escort Cards

This project is totally premature, haha. But I just couldn't resist! I got the idea from Martha Stewart's wedding crafts section, so I'll be making a stand for these babies later on...but for now it's just the cards. :)

I used some left over card stock paper from the bridesmaids invites project, and created mini flags as escort cards! The pack actually had a lot of colours that go with our theme. Well, the pink is in place of our red for this but the rest is exactly how I wanted it. I'll make more for more people as I think of them.

I just made little cut outs in Word, and used a paper cutter to slice them up. Everything's been glued together.

Onto the pictures!

The flags pre-tooth picks.

All done!

And a close-up.

Overall, I really like how they turned out. Not much fixing to be done, but I still consider these in "mock-up" phase.

I'll be making the stand for the flags later, with a Styrofoam base!
