Delicate but not fussy, the lace scallop fan border page layers radiating fan shapes over looped rings to create something that reads as handmade lace from across the room.
Fan motifs with radiating lines run along the outermost edge on all four sides, mimicking the look of tatted lace. Just inside that edge sits a row of overlapping looped rings, then a plain ruled rectangle that defines the interior writing or display area. The lace scallop fan border page carries two distinct pattern bands before the center opens up completely.
That generous blank interior suits certificates, formal announcements, wedding vows, or any text you want to frame with a vintage feel. Elevated Printables includes this design in the Fancy Page Borders collection for exactly that reason: it pairs ceremony with simplicity. Type directly into a copy of the file, or print blank and write by hand.


Pencil works well here if you plan to write inside the center and may want to erase drafts before inking your final text. The border bands themselves are narrow, so a fine liner in 0.3 or 0.4 mm stays clean without flooding the looped ring details. Ink bleed is unlikely on standard copy paper, but the fan motifs along the outer edge are dense enough that a wet gel pen tip may cause slight feathering there.

Cardstock in the 65 to 80 lb range keeps the fan border crisp and gives the page enough body to stand up on a display easel or inside a frame. If you are printing a batch for an event, check that your printer does not clip the outermost fan edge, as it sits close to the page boundary and a tight margin setting may trim it.
