I chose to enter the first and last name in different text boxes so that I can adjust the names to fit on each place card. Now that you've designed the lettering for the acrylic place cards, it is time to send the design to your Cricut machine to be cut. It gives the place cards the appearance of gold foiling and contrasts well with the dusty blue paint.

If you’re considering using your Cricut to create wedding invitations, be sure to check out our article on single line fonts for Cricut. Acrylic is one material that we have seen used in the last few years for wedding signage, including place cards. Once you've placed the vinyl letters on the front of the place card you can remove the protective backing from the back of the acrylic place card. Once your machine has finished cutting the vinyl, it is time to remove the excess vinyl from the place card names. Carefully remove the vinyl from the larger areas taking care not to lift the letters off the backing.To ensure it’s secure, you’ll then want to brush over it before gently peeling to make sure it’s stuck. Whether you choose to use a Cricut to make acrylic place cards for your wedding or you choose to use the trace method, they will surely add a touch of elegance to your reception table decor. Open Cricut Design Space and use the shape tool to create rectangles to represent the acrylic place card blanks. If you want the vinyl to look similar to paint, I recommend a premium matte vinyl like Cricut or Oracal 651 permanent vinyl. Place the vinyl you plan to cut on a standard grip cutting mat and load the cutting mat into the Cricut.

You don't have to do this, however I find it easier to have this spacing once I've removed the excess vinyl and added the transfer tape. Couples are getting more and more creative with incorporating place cards into their overall wedding decor. Essentially, you would use a Google Docs, Microsoft Word, or Canva to layout the name for each place card.Once you've removed the excess vinyl from around the letters, you'll need to place transfer tape over the vinyl and burnish (rub) the transfer tape. If you are using a 12 x 12 cutting mat you can cut approximately 12 sets of place card names at a time. Second, it will ensure the layout of the first and the last name is maintained when you send your project to your Cricut machine. Once you have all of the names entered and welded together you'll need to hide all of the rectangles you created. To match my wedding colours, I used the following sage green acrylic paint which I can highly recommend.

If you are painting the back, be sure to clean the back with rubbing alcohol just as you did with the front side. Align the marks you made on the transfer tape and the protective backing to ensure the letters are centered on the place card. If you’d like to make these place cards for your wedding, but don’t have a cutting machine like a Cricut, you can still make beautiful place cards using the trace method.
