Favour place cards [update]

I think they all look nice but the second one with the flower is gorgeous

I like the middle one best too ?

I really like the ribbon one.

Same here - middle one is cute!

Middle or me too. The lower just 'makes it'.

Or could do a combination, but is this is a bit over the top?

Is it the same flower one the second pic as the first pic ??....as it seems bigger.

I liked the flower in the top one but if its the same flower I'd go for the ribbon.

The second one is a bigger flower but in the same colour as the ribbon ?

Love the flower one I agree with 2b mrsb that I prefer the smaller flower though. Re ribbon I think it's pretty but if you are having boxes with patterned paper I don't think I would have flower and ribbon as well as for me it gets very busy

I think theone with the ribbon (3rd in your OP) is gorgeous xx

The lilac flower is too big, but I do like the smaller one, maybe ribbon would still work if it was the same colour as the small flower ?

Thanks ladies, here it is with the smaller flower, I might take off the patterned paper though as it looks a bit busy

I like this one. I also don't think it looks too busy, but can see on a table with lots it might. How about having some with plain paper (for men for example) and some with patterned for ladies?

Agree! Love the 3rd one in the OP.

Do consider what they will look like on the tables too, in conjunction with any other table decorations/stationery/crockery you plan to have.

Thanks ? How about ribbon just round the sides?

Love this idea-the ribbon 1 in your OP is lovely and looks as nice without the patterned paper aswel so that would look really good!

They all look lovely but I like this one the most x x x

Thanks ladies, I appreciate the help ? I know I'm probably over-thinking things but I like to try different ideas. How about this one?

My Fav! ?

Just a little update. I've finally decided on the decoration of my favour boxes. I made some ribbon roses using a tutorial on youtube, and think they look quite nice, and are simple to make (I decided the paper flowers were just too fiddly and took too long). These are just the prototypes, but I'll be having a light lilac ribbon round the sides for the ladies, and a darker purpler for the gents ?

I also used some leftover purple card from my invitations for the labels.

Smaller flower, no ribbon.

Thanks ? I was just saying in my last post that unfortunately the paper flowers are too fiddly and take too long, so I'm going with the ribbon flowers ?

Ha! Me too! I'm normally really good for not doing that!

Actually really like the one's you've chosen too!

They are fab, I really like them.

I agree with Kharv - smaller flower no ribbon - less busy.

Wow they look fab!! Do you have the link to the YouTube tutorial at all for the ribbon flowers? I'd love to have a go!!

Sure, there are step by step pictures here, as well as a video at the bottom. They are really easy to make, its like magic ?

Wow that was sooo easy to do!! another questiuon....where did you get the patterend paper to wrap round it??? id like something similar

I just found a pattern I liked and printed it onto vellum ?

Oh really?? was it quite easy to do? id have no idea where to begin!!! ive also done small versions of the rose ribbon whihc im going to use for my place cards :-)
