Wedding Sign Keepsake
Weddings are such a magical time, and of course
, there are all the many things that are done traditionally at most weddings. Sometimes its the simple touches that really make an event memorable - especially when it comes to weddings. A specially made wedding sign with the names of the bride and groom is elegant and also makes a nice keepsake.
With just a little effort and creativity, you can make a beautiful wedding sign to hang with ribbon for the bride and groom to use as a decoration at the special event and in their home as a reminder of their special day and maybe a helpful way to remind the hubby years later when the anniversary is!
Materials:
Foam core board, Hole punch, Crepe paper, Hot glue gun, Cardstock, Taffeta or satin ribbon, Scrapbook paper
1. Choose a piece of foam core board in one of the wedding colors. Cut the board to the desired size for the sign.
2. Select some patterned or solid color crepe paper in wedding colors. Cut four 8-inch lengths each of crepe paper. Trim one long edge of each length with pinking shears.
3. Fold the crepe paper pieces accordion style and set aside.
4. Type the names of the bride and groom and the wedding date on the computer. Choose an elegant typeface that will complement the wedding theme. Print it on cream cardstock and cut out the type in a square shape.
5. Choose a piece of scrapbook paper that is complementary in theme and color to the wedding to use as your frame for the bride and groom names. Cut the paper in a frame shape, leaving an opening to insert the cardstock with the names.
6. Glue the names on the cardstock to the back side of the scrapbook paper frame.
7. Hot glue the accordion pieces of crepe paper to the back of the name frame with the accordion folds showing around the edges.
8. Once secured, hot glue the name frame with accordion crepe paper to the foam core board.
9. Punch holes in the upper corners of the foam core board. Select a beautiful satin or taffeta ribbon to hang the sign with.
