Hi All! :)

 

I've printed out my boarding passes, and printed off my pocketfold - but I can't get the fold to look good - how did everyone do theirs? Did you use a paper scorer?

 

Also, with the actual boarding passes, I'm using the ones with the curves at the 2 end bits - did anyone use some sort of device apart from scissors to get the curves right? I've got the corner punches which work wonderfully for the outer curves on the boarding passes, but its just those "v" like curves which are creating a problem! sad.gif

 

Hopefully someone can help!

Thanks Bianca

 

I'm defo going to do the "v" like curves, just think they look brilliant - but would like to know now before I start doing them if there is an easier way to do them rather than laboring at them for days!lol

 

I dunno what i'm going to do with getting the folds looking less unprofessional..i'll just need to keep trying! lol

i used the scissors for the "v"s... it actually wasn't that bad.

 

Now, for the creases, I used my pampered chef stone cleaner thingy-ma-bob. it's a brown plastic square with a straight edge... just run that across your seem and you have a beautiful fold!

I've just had a wee go at the pocketfold again...and it was a success on most levels! woo hoo. I scored the fold with open scissors then folded...this turned out perfectly..woohoo! However...then I went and broke my corner punch! I tried punching the pocketfold when it was actually folded...and i'm thinking the card was too thick! damn! I didn't know what size the buy for the corner punch, so I bought the small and extra small one....the extra small one is absolutely useless unless you are using extra small extra thin paper...and the small one was working fine until 5 mins ago!damn!

Only thing left to figure out is how to get those "v" corners perfect! I saw a rotary cutter on ebay...i'm thinking this might work, but don't know if it will work better than scissors!?

If you have a paper cutter (the rotary kind), to make the Vs perfect, get the scoring blade for the cutter, score the line, fold it over and use your corner punch. You an do this with a bone folder as well. The V is just 2 corner punches put together, but you have to fold it in half to get the paper into the punch.

OMG, that is what that brown thing is from pampered chef! I found it in my drawer a few days ago and thought my mom had left it here as part of her cake decorating stuff!!!! I do have a pizza stone from PC so that is were it came from!

 

Thanks for the help!!!!!

 

I believe it is called a boner also. I score it with the non sharp end of the blade and fold and then run like the middle part of a pen over it, or ruler.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
