How do I go about doing this

themuffinman16 · February 2014

I saw these invitations and fell in love with them. They are just way too expensive. I was thinking about DIYing my invitations. I have looked at tutorials, and I all ready know how to make the invitation embellishment come together. But I don't know how to format the wording onto the cardstock so it is in the right margins, and allows room for the embellishment at the top. Any ideas? My wedding is in July.. am I not giving myself enough time to realize if this will be possible?

You can totally do this in Microsoft Word.

Just make sure you do your test printing on cheap printer paper to get things lined up correctly, then print on your nice cardstock after that.

I agree to just do it in Microsoft Word. I would move the wording so that it is all the down to the bottom of the page and then you can cut your paper to the size you need with all the blank space at the top.

ETA: Those are really cute invitations.

The ribbon and lace would be easy to add
