An original wedding requires an unusual approach. The assortment of postcard offers does not please with variety. To make unique and special wedding invitations, stock up on imagination, positive mood and the necessary accessories. Moreover, making invitations on your own is much easier than looking for a suitable option in wedding salons. And most importantly - hand made is back in fashion!
Instructions
Step 1
Find the right photo from your own photo archive. This can be city sketches, a landscape, a photo of doves, the sky, the sea, or a picture of your couple. Process your photos in Photoshop, experimenting with layers, contrast, aging, frames, patterns. Use the calligraphic font on the photo to compose the text of the wedding invitation and print the card on a photo printer. Such an invitation can be sent either by mail, previously enclosed in an envelope, or delivered in person.
Step 2
The completely manual options for invitations are interesting. Like a pop-up card with a homemade cover, on the inner sheet of which you will write the text of the invitation itself. Decorate the cover with a brush and paints, schematically or artistically depicting pigeons, flowers, rings or whatever you wish. The simplest decoration of the cover is a square or rhombus cut out with curly scissors from textured paper, covered with lace with sewn beads, pasted over with ready-made satin roses or other decorative details around the edges. The cover can be completely draped over with a piece of satin or silk fabric, which, with stencils attached, then thickly cover with glitter hairspray.
Step 3
Make wedding invitations in the form of miniature scrolls. Both parchment paper and ordinary decorative paper painted in pink, blue or light green will do. Cut the sticks onto which you will roll the scrolls from a divided bamboo napkin. On the scroll, write your solemn invitation by hand. Then roll the scroll, as expected, into a tube. Difficulties can arise with a wax seal. But it is quite possible to replace it with molten and tinted paraffin from a candle. Of course, the ideal option would be to put a brass seal with an engraving of your initials, but any "family monogram", which is sold in sufficient quantities in children's stores, is suitable for this purpose. You can do without a seal at all by tying the scrolls with elegant braid, the ends of which are passed through large heavy beads.
