Wedding Cheque Book Invitations

Wedding Cheque Book Invitations

         

So many of my customers purchase wedding cheque book style invitations from my website www.razzledazzlerose.co.uk, and have no idea how to print on them. Here we show you how to create these simple, but stunning cheque books style invitations for your wedding. 

The cheque book kits come with:

275gm Blank Brown kraft card front and back cover

3 x 100gsm Blank kraft paper insert sheets

Matching Brown Kraft 120gsm DL Envelopes

The covers and inserts are pre drilled, and creased to the left hand side.

The kits are available in packs of 25 cheque books.

Each cheque book ‘sheet’ comes pre-drilled, and creased, with a front and back cover and three insert sheets that can all be easily printed from your home printer. 

Firstly, using Microsoft word, you need to choose the paper size to print directly onto the sheets. Choose page layout, size, from the drop down menu choose DL long edge, this will change your page size to the correct size required to print onto your cover and inserts correctly.  

From the tabs at the top of the screen, choose home, then insert tab, then add text box, choose text direction tab, then rotate the text by 90 degrees so the text direction is in line with the DL size you want to print on.

You can add your designs, or artwork, and add your chosen wording. Remember to leave at least a 20mm gap at the left hand side when typing for the creasing and the drill holes.

Repeat this process for your insert sheets adding the details of your wedding date, time and location, the remaining sheet can be a rsvp to your guests etc.

                                                                                                                                                                                       You need to then alter your printer tray to fit the card and insert sheets like this:

There is usually a DL indicated or Envelope indicator printed on the paper tray. Move the tabs at the side so the card cover fits. Print on the reverse side of the card with the two holes nearest to you.  Repeat the process for the insert sheets.

Once the card cover and the inserts have been printed you need to then attach them together. With your ribbon, cut both ends of the ribbon to angles – this make threading the ribbon through the holes a little easier.  Start from the back, you should have a plain back cover, three insert sheets and a front cover. 

Once both ribbons are pulled through to the front, tie into a bow to complete your wedding cheque book invitations.

And there you have it, your beautiful cheque book wedding invitations.

Handmade Paper flowers

Step by Step Tutorial for Hand Made 

Recycled Paper Flowers

Here's how to make these gorgeous handmade paper flowers

Step 1

To make these gorgeous recycled paper flowers, firstly, you need to purchase one of our paper kit from our website herewww.razzledazzlerose.co.uk.  In your paper flower kit, you will see die cut pieces of paper like this:

 Step 2   To make the flower, you need to carefully roll the paper from the end until you reach the middle  like this:

Step 3

Once you have reached rolling to the middle part of the paper flower, you need to add the glue to the large middle part. Once you let go of the rolled flower, it will naturally unroll slightly, this is ok, as you want the flower petals to look a little looser.

 I find that lifting the rolled flower in one hand and squeezing a blob of glue under the rolled part works best. You then need to add another blob of glue to the rest of the middle part, and squeeze the flower together like this :

Step 4

Leave the glue to set for 20 minutes; then start to bend your petals. By moving and bending the petals, you create a more natural look for your petals.

Depending on which kit you have purchased, you can create fantastic button holes by glueing a pin to the back.

.

Our flower kits are available in brown kraft card, cream vintage fleck card (as show in our diagram’s) or plantable and growable seed card. They can be used to decorate your wedding favours or invitations, or as button holes for your guests.

Why not create a lasting memory of your special day, by planting your button hole? Once your button hole has been used, it can then be planted where it will produce a wide range of British Wildflowers.

Our gorgeous plantable seed paper is hand made with Contains British Wildflower Seeds. Seeds included are;- Birdsfoot Trefoil, Black Snapweed, Black Medick, Common Vetch, Meadow Buttercup, Musk Mallow, Ox-eye Daisy, Ribwort Plantain, Red Campion, Self Heal, White Campion, Yarrow, Browntop Bent, Red Fescue, Crested Dogstail, Meadow Fescue and Smooth Stalk Meadow Grass.
