Polka Dots

This client's party theme was polka dots. In keeping with that theme, they wanted round place cards and table cards with a corresponding number of polka dots to the table number. The colors scheme was turquoise, lime green and accents of red.
For the place cards, I first printed them on scored (folded) white card stock. In Illustrator, I made a template of 2 overlapping circles and then made it into one shape. Then for each table (there were 20 tables), I set up polka dots for the background in turquoise with a low transparency. The names were printed in lime green and the table number typed at the bottom in turquoise.
Once they were printed out, I folded the paper and used a 3" craft hole punch. Sometimes, the hole punch would not go completely through the 2 layers of card stock, so I had to finish with scissors.
For the table cards, I set them up to print with a 5 inch circle template. Once printed, I used a craft circle cutter and matt board to cut them out. Then I cut out slightly larger red circles and attached them together with double sided tape from an ATG gun.
