No doubt, your menu is planned, decorations put together and party favors all ready to go. You realize at the last minute you are serving some cool vino and wonder how guests can keep up with their own glasses.
Never fear, using this simple technique with Marvy Punches, you can make some really quick simple wine markers with supplies you have on hand.
Simply put, you will need to start with some red white and blue card stock scraps and the Super Jumbo Flower and/or Star Punch. I chose the flower because it looks super cute for this project and the star because of the obvious, also to use for the guys.
After you punch your motif from the card stock scraps, fold the shape in half like this.
Now use the clever lever punch in circle shape to punch a half circle from the center of the folded punch, lining it up as carefully as you can.
Here is the result.
To make it fit on the stem, use your squishy scissors to cut a slit in one side of the punch.
Finally, use Marvy dye ink pads in black or white and small alphabet stamps to stamp guests names.
How easy is that?
Happy July 4th!
