How to Make Christmas Invitations for Work

If your office is having a Christmas office party, you may have offered to design and create the invitations yourself. Making your own Christmas invitations can be a fun and affordable solution. To make Christmas invitations, you will need to follow just a few simple steps.

1. Use Microsoft Word or a similar program.


2. Purchase paper that can be used for the invites. Card stock is one popular choice of paper used for invitations.


3. Open up a new document in the program you are using.


4. Choose a border for the invitation. You can create your own border using a Photoshop program or you search for one online.


5. Copy and paste the border into the document.


6. Insert a Christmas themed picture at the top of the document. You can find these type of images on a number of different search engine websites.


7. Choose a font for the text. You will also need to adjust the size and the color of the font. The size of the font for the introduction should be about 24.


8. Create a catchy phrase for the introduction of the invitation. For example, "Santa's Coming To The Office!" or something along those lines.


9. Adjust the size of the font so that it is not as large. Size 12 font would work well.


10. Insert important details onto the invitation. These details will include the location of the party and the time and date. Include any additional details. If it is a potluck type of office party, ask that each guest bring in a dish of something.


11. Add more images on the invitation. A good idea would be to insert images of snowflakes around the invitations.


12. Print out one copy of the invitation design to make sure that you like the end result.


13. Print out as many invitations as you will need when you are completely finished creating your invitations.
