Wedding Invitation Step-by-Step Guide
Step One - Download the Template
To start you will want to download the template (asset #340) from my resource library.
Unzip the file and upload the SVG file only to Cricut Design Space
Step Two - Design Space Adjustments
There are only a couple of adjustments to be made in Design Space. The first is to change the Yellow basic cut object to Pen.
Step Three - Changing the Pen Type
You can choose your own pen size. For a nice Silver line, choose Glitter Gel 0.8mm and the Silver from the drop-down list.
Double check to make sure everything is attached and saved. Click on Make It to continue.
Step Four - Selecting Your Material
You want to make sure you select the right type of material for your card. My suggestion is to use a double-sided medium cardstock and use a solid core paper if possible. This will give you a nice clean cut without white showing through in the core.
Your cardstock should also have one side a plain color so that the pen drawing will show.
Place the cardstock with the plain side up and the patterned side down for maximum effect.
Step Five - Assembly
The assembly is quite simple. You want to fold the edges in towards the center. This means the silver pen drawing will be in the middle and the edges are folded in. Crease the edges so they form a sharp fold.
Next, cut a piece of narrow ribbon - 12” is the perfect size.
Thread the ribbon through the two holes in the center middle of the card, even the ribbon out and then tie a bow.
Step Six - The Finishing Touches
