Fairy Tale Wedding Invitation
A fairy tale wedding invitation that you can make yourself, all you will need is a clipart image that you like, it could be of a castle, a princess, a glass slipper, a knight, a fantasy coach or any other image that you want to add. You will need some graphics software which is available for free from Serif or you can get a free trial of Photoshop.
The castle graphic on this invitation was free from

Open a new file in your graphics program and copy and paste the image into the new canvas. With this image I have removed the black background using a layer mask, you will find this in the options bar under layer. Alternatively you could select the part of the image that you like using the magic wand and paste it into a new file. When you are happy you have the part of the image you like, save it and now you can add a color. Our castle has been painted with a light purple, the opacity on the brush was taken down to 40% so that you are not blocking the image. Have a play around with the opacity and colors. Again when you are happy with the result make sure you save it! Now you can add the words, I have used "Dreams do come true" straight from Disney and used a Tiranti font, choose a nice flowing font. Other wedding invitation phrases could be "Once Upon A Time" with this you could have photos of the two of you from years ago. "Happily Ever After" is also a classic phrase for this style of invite. Before you set the printer to print the hundreds of invites you need check everything is lined up right by just printing one, when you are happy, set the printer to go! Or you could have a printer, print your design for you, this can work out cheaper than you think and they have all the correct equipment so you won't be paying for any mistakes! The beauty of designing your own fairy tale wedding invitation is that you can use the same design on your order of service, thank you cards and menu cards.
