Hello! Today, I have a very simple and easy do-it-yourself Wedding Invitation. I will teach you, how with very few products, you can get a professional wedding invitation that can be customized for your own taste. No matter the theme, or wedding colors you choose, you can design your own wedding invitations.
Wedding invitation styles are constantly changing and updating and recently on Pinterest I have seen some beautiful CLEAR invitations using acrylic sheets. I wanted to find a DIY to make clear invitations and still have them be very elegant. I used StazOn Pigment Ink and a Marble stamp layering stamp set to get the look I was going for, and it was easier than I thought to create these see-through translucent invitations!
Wedding invitations can be expensive! But with Delicata Inks and a pretty layered flower stamp, you can create some inexpensive invitations that are not only pretty but they are also easy to make. Find out how by watching my video below.
Happy spring, everyone! This month we are focusing on wedding themes and I thought I would share some ideas using large floral stamps. When you are mass producing cards or invitations, you want to minimize the number of steps when creating. So using large images will save you a lot of time. Creating with a mess-free ink, like StazOn Pigment, is also key because it dries instantly and won’t smear. Lastly, for quick embellishing, use the Sheer Shimmer Stix to add the final wow factor. And your simple wedding project is done!
Did you know that, according to Wikipedia, there are 2.5 million weddings in the United States each year? Wow, who knew?! That means that there are a lot of individuals out there planning for their big day! It’s a good thing that this project is designed to inspire those planning for their special day to create quick, simple and elegant handmade wedding invitations.
