  Step 1

  First you design your cards, you can use any search engine to come up with clever ideas for your cards. I decided to create cards that would have a central card with two tear away cards attached to it for a fun interactive design.

• 

  Step 2

  Print a full sheet of your cards out.

• 

  Step 3

  Take your sewing machine and without any thread sew anywhere you want your perforations. In this case I only have to sew two lines down my pages to create the three column design I was trying to achieve.

• 

  Step 4

  Nect I cut the cards apart and pre folded them on the perforations.

  The next step works best if you use a heavy object to hold the bussiness cards closed and of course mark where the center is on the top flap.

• 

  Step 5

  Light your wax a flame and carefully drip about a dime to nickle work of wax on your desired location.

• 

  Step 6

  If the last step didn't provide a clean circle or oval shape it's best to use the wax stick to even out the seal area.

• 

  Step 7

  Set your seal into the wax while still hot and hold in place for a few seconds. Next gently wiggle your seal free.

  To insure a clean stamp and release every time it is best to lightly pad the seal on a damp napkin between seals.

  Step 8

  Ta da! You now have elegant business cards to share with the world!

Thanks! I'm pretty proud of them, but even more so of my new business card tickets. Sneak peek here:

These ones are a tad more tricky to get right but very much worth the effort when you have a full strand of rainbow tickets to tear apart and hand out.
