How do you do it? My cousin is getting married next year and his aunt has been on the phone asking how she can print on handmade invitations - I have no idea, but I guessed someone here might Thanks x

Depending on the shape/size of the card...I have just played around in excel and made up my own templates.

I dont think the invitations can go in a "normal" printer... I think shes on about sending or taking them somewhere special?

You can always hand make the outside of the card (ie the card bit) & then put paper through a printer for the wordy bit & stick inside the card ?

you could do what whizz says, or, try printing on the inside of the card before you do the outside (if that makes sense) i know my printer will usually let me feed cards thru to print on them. May a take a few goes to get it right though.

Personally i would do an insert on nice paper and put that inside

Are you talking printing on the actual card itself...or printing an insert?

Then, again I just play with excel to make up a template. Print out on a nice paper, fold and stick to the inner back fold with DS tape.
