Question about RSVP Pens

[Mom2Ava04]

[SIZE=3]I am doing a mini journal with matching RSVP pens...however I cannot seem to figure out how to get the stamped paper into the pens...does anyone know the size of the paper and the easiest way to get it into the pen so it looks nice? I have to make 100- so that is why I am asking- it took me 20 min to do 1- was hoping there was an easier way...thank you in advance!! Michelle :-)

What kind of paper are you using? Thinner paper like printer paper is easier than cardstock. You can sponge it if you want a color.

If I were going to do that many I'd stamp a whole sheet then cut it.

As to the size, I lay the pen on the edge of the paper then cut it that long.

Then I roll it around the actual pen part.

I am sure it will get easier as you go....

I use a wooden skewer, and roll the paper around it to make a tight roll...then slide it into the casing. Use lightweight paper....like printer paper to put the design on, this makes a big difference. Good luck!

I have always done it with printer paper. It works well. My Secret sister sent me a pen done with designer paper to match some cards she did for me. I thought that was a really cool idea. Here is a picture of the entire set she did for me with the pen in the middle. If the journals you are doing have designer paper that matches you may want try that for the pens. Just a thought.
