Do it Yourself Wedding Invites with the cricut expression?

by admin on September 1, 2010

I am getting married next fall and I own a cricut expression. I wanted to try and make some sample invitations and I was wanting some ideas. I need to know what cartridge to use and the layout of some card ideas. Anything anyone can do for me would be so greatly appriciated.

I would try Sure Cuts A Lot software. I bought a copy and I don’t even use my cartridges anymore. With SCAL you can use any font you have on your computer. Which means that if you find a font on Dafont.com or some other free site you can download it and cut it on your Cricut. That alone is worth the price. But now they have a new version that cuts any sort of shape you have as well. It use to be only SVG files but now you can use any sort of shape you have on your computer.

they make so many cartridges now. I would try to find a web site for cricut users. there are many.
they do have cartridges for weddings. I would start with finding a font you like.

then looking at any kind of wedding invitation. you can copy the layout out of it.
try your public library under cards/paper craft/scrapbooking, Look in card magazines.
try archiversonline.com.
