Hello, for my escort cards i'm having a distressed wood (painted white) box I made filled with sand, then i'm about to buy these off etsy

Place cards paper? how did you guys do this? : wedding Il 430xN.124807432 Natural Shell Place Card Holders- Set of 50 with FREE SHIPPING

For the name cards, how did you guys do this? Do you buy perforated paper? or did you just use card stock and cut with scissors? I'm not sure how to do this to make them look nice. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I bought placecards already cut and scored from PaperSource online. They have several different color options. We then stamped them and hand wrote the names.

I was hoping to not have to hand write, my hand writings pretty ugly. So I was hoping to get something I could feed thru a printer.

I used cardstock, and I made a label template in Microsoft Word. I will have to cut the with a papercutter.

Ive done this using a template i made in word using text boxes. i then printed them and cut them using a desktop cutter (dont use scissors, you wont get even close to straight lines) piece of cake.

You could also try business card paper... the ones that you just pull the card apart (so they are already perfectly measured)
