How to Make Printable Anniversary Invitations
Finding the perfect anniversary invitation to convey just the right sentiment can be a time-consuming proposition. It can not only be difficult, but also costly. Therefore, avoid the stress and create the beautiful anniversary invitations you are looking for yourself.
Supplies
- Printer
- Computer
- Decorative Paper
- Metallic ink
- Boxed chocolates
- Since invitations give the invited guest a glimpse of the type of party you are planning, don't forget to use your party theme.
- Purchase the appropriate decorative papers. They can be found at a party or office supply store.
- Add a touch of elegance by purchasing gold or silver edged papers. Thin, tissue-like paper also creates an elegant overlay for a plain white card. Don't forget the matching envelopes.
- Print your information on the card. This can be done by hand or with your computer's graphic arts program and printer.
- Consider making your invitations unique, and use your imagination. For example, purchase a box of chocolate candy for each invitation you are planning to send out. Print out a collage of the anniversary couple with photos from their wedding day to the present and glue it to the top of the inside of the candy box. Print the anniversary invitation on decorative paper and lay it in the box as a covering for the chocolates. This should only be done if you are planning to deliver each of the invitations by hand, because mailing it would be too expensive.
- If your anniversary party is small, make personalized invitations for each of the guests. A personalized invitation is very special, as it conveys the message "We really want you at our celebration."
- Design an anniversary invitation with your graphic art program and print on a plain white paper or card stock, with metallic gold or silver ink. This works especially well for gold or silver anniversary themes.
