Make It Custom

DIY Brides are looking for what is uniquely theirs. They aren’t buying things off the shelf, they are personalizing items to fit their own style to give their events that bit of extra flair. Like I mentioned above, these invitations need no embellishment, but if you’re a DIY bride, go ahead and add your own unique touch, we’ll help you!

Minted Wedding Invitations

First, we’re starting with stunning wedding invitations from Minted. They are one of our favorite invitations partners as they source their designs from an amazing group of talented independent artists!

Design Space

I created all of these custom invitation wraps using Cricut’s Design Space program alone – which you can do too! Basic Design Space knowledge will be helpful as this is an intermediate to advanced project.

Additional Supplies:

• Cricut Scoring Blade
• Cricut XL Scraper
• Cardstock
• Ruler
• Glue Dots

Scoring Wheel or Stylus

All of these invitation wraps will benefit greatly from using the Cricut scoring wheel (Maker) or scoring stylus (Explore). Design Space prompts you when to put this tool in to the machine and when to switch to the blade.
