Sand Inspired Beach Wedding Invitation

Beach Wedding Invitations You Can Make Yourself

Beach weddings are a fabulous opportunity to try something a little fresh and out of the ordinary for your wedding guests. Sand Inspired Beach Wedding invitations are the perfect opportunity to incorporate your beach wedding theme, show your personality, and even save a little money making them yourself.

Here is a Sand Inspired Beach wedding invitation project that is beautiful, classy, and easy to do. If you are having a large wedding with quite a few guests this spring or summer I highly recommend asking some of your bridesmaids and even the grooms men to help make these wonderfully unique Sand Inspired Beach wedding invitations.

For this Sand Inspired Beach wedding project you will need:

Heavy grade watercolor pre made blank cards and envelopes

Watercolor paint or acrylic paint in sand color

Water

Paint Brushes

Sharp Scissor or Exacto Knife

Tan color Pencils

Gum water color medium

Sand Water color medium

Mini flat sea shells (optional)

This is an easy Sand Inspired Beach wedding invitation project if you break it down into a number of different steps and don't let them overwhelm you.

The first step is to decide what you want the front of your beach wedding invitation to say. I recommend "You're Invited." You can really write almost anything you want though!

Next, you need to deiced on a font. I recommend typing out your words in a bunch of different fonts on your computer. Print them out at different sizes and see what will work best for your beach wedding invitations.

Once you have found the font you want to use you will want to lay your Sand Inspired Beach wedding words out on some regular drawing paper, trace them and cut them out.

Now you are ready to lay your chosen wedding invitation words out on your heavy water color wedding invitation paper. Trace them lightly with tan or fawn pencil and then cut them out. This will help the outlines of your words blend in with the sand you are about to paint.
