DIY Wedding
Handstamped & Embossed Napkins

This past Sunday night, boredom sunk it when my FH spent all day watching football and the baseball playoffs. I decided to work on stamping and embossing our beverage napkins.. all 300 of them (150 blue and 150 brown). I had a little help from FH during slow moments of the games... you know, when he wasn't checking his Fantasy Football scores.

They came out so cute, were cheap and a little detail that makes me smile.

Price Breakdown:

Stamp: Michaels- $2.50
Ink: Michaels- $1.00
Emobssing Powder: Michaels- $2.70
Napkins: Card and Party Factory Outlet- $19 total.

I already had the heat embossing tool since I'm using it on many things.

Total for this project: $25.20 Not too shabby!! Plus, there is PLENTY of embossing powder left for my future projects!

You've done an AMAZING job!! That is so much cheaper than what you would pay anywhere for personalized napkins for 300 of them! And you did them in one day? Unreal. High five!

mlee- I just purchased a stamp, ink and embossing powder from Michaels and I already had the embossing gun. I stamped the napkins, poured on the embossing powder, shook it off and heated it with the embossing gun and voila.. done! Just make sure you don't leave them embossing gun on the napkin for too long or have it too close to the napkin.
