As promised here is the product of all our collaborative hard work this week. Thanks to Mr. Jelly Beans staying up all night to put the finishing touches we are finally done.
I purchased placecards from Paper Source in Luxe Blush and printed what seemed like an endless amount of cards with my trusty inkjet printer. Then thanks to everyone’s friend, Martha, much to Mr Jelly Beans dismay, I found the cutest edge punch that we used to embellish the ends for a more vintage spin. And because I am Miss Jelly Beans, crystals were a must! We are using the clear swarovskis to indicate a beef entree and a pink one to indicate a chicken entree.
All in all, this took a few days from start to finish, from the printing, the edging and the glueing. Phew! It was very labor intensive but I am so pleased with the end results. 
Thank you Mr. Jelly Beans!
Phew! All done…
Very cute. I like the crystal for the entree - much better than other variations.
Of course now I think I’m headed back to the craft store to look for a different edge punch than the one we picked up this wknd.
That’s what I love most about WeddingBee. You ladies have such inspiring projects!
So simple but elegant!!
Would you mind sharing how you glued the crystal onto the card?? It’s not regular glue, is it? I am going to attach a swarovski in the middle of my monogram on my invitations (I think you did that also??)
Thanks!
Can you describe that pink for me? I am trying to find pinks to do my stationery with, but don’t want it to be too ‘bubblegum’.
Living in Canada, it’s sometimes hard to find online stores that ship here, so any help I can get from fellow Canadian brides with regards to where to buy all this stuff is fantastic.
How long is that Martha Stewart edge punch? I think it could be perfect for my programs! Is it hard to use (do you have to push down super hard to get through cardstock)?
Sorry–the copyeditor in me is dying. The second c of McCloskey should be capped. That’s the case for all Mc names. IGNORE if you are done. They are beautiful!
Very cute Miss Jelly Beans! I got the same punch the place cards I’m making for my sister’s wedding! Gotta love Martha Stewart at Michaels!
So cute! Great job!
♥Love them! ♥ Your guests will be so impressed!
Very pretty! I had fantasized about doing Swarovski crystal accents on my placecards, but in crunch time, that was the first thing to go 
I really like the punch!
gorgeous! love the edges. may i ask where you purchased the punch?
or please let me know whether you’d like to sell yours after the wedding. misslisa at gmail dot com
Nice work
Those are gorgeous! You and Mr. JB did a great job. I bet you had lots of “confetti” after punching everything - like a built-in party!
i love them so much.
the edges are really great. and you did it all by hand!
i bet you’re glad thats done
