Easy Homemade Wedding Card Ideas
- If you want to give the couple a funny card, you have two main options. First, you can focus on inside jokes between you and the couple. As a second option, you can go for a more general humor that doesn't relate directly back to the couple. A great way to make a card funny is with a humorous quote. You can find wedding-related quotes by musicians, comedians, actors and authors on the Internet by typing your preferred terms into a search engine. With either option, supplement the text by either drawing, printing pictures from online or using magazine cutouts to reflect your ideas.
- In order to make a photo montage card, collect pictures of the couple you would like to include. The photos can be professional or amateur, serious or funny, black and white or color---whatever you have available and would conjure good memories for the couple. You can either make a montage online using a photo processing site like www.Snapfish.com or print the shots out and cut and paste them onto a sheet (flat or folded) of sturdy paper. Leave space to write a message to the bride and groom.
- A heartfelt card focuses mostly on the text and less on decoration or embellishment. Considering composing a poem or a short paragraph detailing the sentiments you want to express. (If you aren't sure of your writing skills, you can always quote a poet you admire.) Printing your personal words on a sheet of soft-colored paper will make the words pop on the page. Try decorating the front of the card with a simple but elegant phrase such as "On Your Wedding Day" or "Congratulations on This Special Day" written in calligraphy.
