Wedding Invitations - how to make invitations to a wedding

If you do not like what modern stores can offer as your wedding invitations, there is only one way out: you have to do it yourself. Of course, only in the event that a few hours spent on creating your own masterpiece of time will not be a burden to you. Well, are they ready to make invitations to the wedding with their own hands?

You do not need to give up such a wonderful opportunity to create your own invitations, even in the case when the last time you did something with your own hands. You are still in the first grades of the school in art lessons. Having zeal and a good attitude can create real miracles. If there is even a slight negligence, this will only give the product a greater charm.

Step by step to describe the production of a specific invitation, most likely, not worth it. After all, if you do not fit all those products that are presented in the stores, you hardly want to blindly copy what is presented on the World Wide Web( they are created for someone else's wedding, but I would like an exclusive one).

In addition, to do exactly the same thing that is represented in the sketch can be quite difficult. What you need to be guided when creating your own invitations is your wishes, taste and, of course, fantasy.

And now to those moments that can cause some difficulties.

Basic rules of

The first thing you need to do is to soberly and clearly evaluate everything that you know:

1. Can you work on each of the millimeters of paper that you will cut? And do it all as painstakingly as possible?
2. Can you work in any of the graphic editors? If so, how well?
3. What about your nerves? Can you stand it quietly, if your printer for the hundredth time "zazhuet" paper?

If you look at these parameters objectively, you will understand that you can do all this, good luck!

Remember the most important thing: do not invite invitations too much by no means. It will be too hard( and maybe impossible) to send them by mail.

Invitation Examples Consider two examples of the most popular of wedding invitations.

In the

envelope This variant can be called a classic: a postcard with a decorative cover that opens, the text on the inner sheet is located. To the usual two pages, you can add a third, usually non-functional, made of transparent or translucent paper. But if you let go of the fantasy, you can print the text on such transparent paper, but fill the inside with some beautiful and unobtrusive color.

Traditionally, not only wedding dresses are made of white material, and other accessories should be( preferably) performed in fairly calm tones.

In case your wedding will be some kind of unusual, you can step back from this rule and make an invitation bright and saturated color. But in any case, it must be done so that it fits into the overall concept.

If you decide to print the texts yourself without contacting the printer, you should remember that laser printers can give stains or omissions. Especially it concerns printing on textured paper. There are models that can zazhevyvat thin and delicate paper.

The easiest way to decorate a cover is to cut out a square piece of textured paper, using a curved scissors, different from the main color invitation. Such a square must be drawn with lace, which will already be sewn beads or satin flowers.

You can make a few slits in the cover, fill the ends with laces, but in this case you will have to take care of the back side( seal it with paper, for example).

You can make holes for ribbons by the most ordinary office punch. It is not necessary to be limited only by a habitual bow, make the whole lacing( only here to tighten too much it is not necessary).Remember that in order for the ribbon to look beautiful and effective, its length should be quite large.

Scroll

If you do not know how to make invitations to a wedding, try the proven method - the scroll. It is quite easy to create such a scroll, but there may be problems with materials. If the sticks to which you later wind the scroll, you can cut yourself from the cattail, then here is the obligatory, for such an invitation, a seal, it will be difficult to find. Where can I get a seal:

• to ask for it on your mail( it's very cheap, but it's unlikely to work out);
• buy( again, it's very difficult to find a company selling such seals);
• make sealing wax made of molten paraffin( just pick up a candle of the right color).

If search and creation fail, you can do without printing. In this case it will be necessary to simply bind the scrolls with braid. If you attach beads to its ends, the view will be even more beautiful and festive.

In general, it is necessary to focus in the first place on the availability of necessary materials and on their own skills. Just do not have to come up with some grand projects, if you yourself understand that it will be difficult to fulfill them. It is better to make a concise and simple, which means also a neat invitation. So you do not have to worry about that your "works" are too naughty and careless.
