It’s been my experience that wedding gifts tend to include numerous cards. And as cards are easily lost, the tradition of putting a card holder on the gift table has been observed by numerous brides. Well, no ordinary card holder would do for my vintage wedding—no, I had to make one. But this actually turned out to be one of my favorite wedding crafts, because not only do I have a card holder for my wedding, I also have a keepsake.

Thank you to my bridesmaid who had this idea.
