Heart cutter for invites?

fvj199, 16 May, 2009 at 16:51 Posted on Planning 0 5

I'm trying to cut out a heart shape on both sides of my gatefold invitations so that the ribbon can show through it from behind. I don't trust myself to do this freehand with a craft knife but I can't seem to find a heart shape cutter that will let me do it. There are plenty of hole punchers around in a heart shape but they all give you so little distance between the bottom of the card and the shape that you are cutting. I wanted the hearts to be more in the middle of my card. The cards aren't big (C5?) but this is proving to be tricky. Any one got any ideas where I might get a shaped puncher that will let me punch from the centre of the card?

    We have some heart shaped buckle punches that are designed for threading ribbon, fabric or paper through. You can get a different effect depending on how you thread the ribbon through. I hope that this helps and good luck with your gatefold wedding invitations.
