How To Make: DIY Gold Rainbow Place Card Holders

1. In Silhouette Studio, select your font and type the uppercase U
2. Create 2 more letter Us
3. Nest the Us as shown in the image below. You may need to adjust the size of each so that they are not touching
4. Rotate your Us 180 degrees
5. Create 2 rectangles at the base of your rainbow as shown below
6. Weld the rectangles to the rainbow
7. Resize your shape and mirror a copy (mine were 2 in tall)
8. Replicate both copies throughout the page
9. Load your gold foil onto your Silhouette cutting machine and send to cut using printable foil settings
10. Adhere each pair of shapes (the rainbow shape and its mirror image) to each other so that you have a double-sided rainbow
11. Repeat as needed
12. Slide your place card between the rainbow arc
13. Repeat for as many place cards you need

And that’s it! All you need to do now is throw a party! I can’t wait to hear how your unique place card holders turned out – tell me in the comments below!
