Project of the Month Heart Wedding Program Making the perfect Valentine's Heart Wedding Program Brainstorming for the Valentine's Day wedding program, I thought of creative valentine's cards with interesting folds and shapes. I chose to go with a heart shape program that folds in half. It is very simple yet its unique cut makes a powerful symbol. The Program This Pink Heart Program opens to display the wedding party details. The cover simply has the names of the bride and groom and their wedding date in the upper right corner. It is a perfect size program for guests to hold during any ceremony, and a natural keepsake. |

Personalize and Print the Pink Heart Wedding Program What's Needed • 8.5" x 11" paper size • 60 to 120 pound card stock • Bright white, white, tan or beige paper NOTE: Be sure to check with your paper supplier that your paper is inkjet-compatible (or laser-compatible if that's what you're using ) Final Program Dimensions: 5.5" x 5" Colors Suggestions: Pink, red, maroon, beige or tan colors would go well with this program Font used: Harrington and Vladimir Script Now that you've decided on this layout, its time to personalize it! Here's what you need to do:
Members of Wedding Clipart will find the template pictured in this set once they login. All templates are divided by theme, and it will be easy to locate the Valentine's theme and this exact template using the thumbnail image. Once you find it, simply download it to your hard drive. All Wedding Clipart templates are in Microsoft Word format. Double click the template and it will open automatically in MS Word. You'll see that all the text is in its own textbox, so you can edit the text and move it to where you want very easily. Try typing additional words and phrases and you'll get the hang of it immediately. You can also change the font, add bold or italicized text if you wish. Swap out or edit graphics used in the template. We've designed the template layout and graphics so that they are ready to print as-is. But perhaps you've found additional images in the Wedding Clipart collection that you'd like to include. Inside the website, along with all the templates, is a complete tutorial on adding and removing images to a document in Microsoft Word. Use this as your guide. Finally, if you are familiar with image-editing programs such as Illustrator or Corel, you have complete flexibility to modify any aspect of any image, from its color to its basic lines. Once you are happy with the way the invitation reads, try a test print on plain paper using the Manual Feed setting on your printer. We've tested all of our templates on inkjet and laser printers, so you shouldn't have any trouble printing with your standard home printer. Practice once on cutting around the design and folding the program. It's best to do this before you start your final prints on expensive paper. You can make as many test prints as you want, allowing you to test different wording, changes to your layout, and additions/subtractions of graphics, as mentioned above. Select the paper you have chosen for your final program. Before you start a large print run, test just one sheet. If the new paper causes any alignment or paper jamming issues, you'll need to troubleshoot the printer. Most printers allow adjustments to the manual paper feed tray. When you have a successful print out, you may still need to feed and print the programs one at a time, depending on your printer. Once you have a stack of final prints, you can always do the cutting and folding at home. But you'll probably save a lot of energy and mistakes by taking the stack to your local copy store and having them cut and fold the entire stack at once. Be sure to have a prototype of a final cut and fold with you for them to follow. Here is a little background on the other piece you see in this Holiday Colors Wedding Stationary Set. Save The Date The save the date card is straightforward. I left a lot of white space in the design, but made it active by the placement of the elements. I used the same font and pink color as I did in the program. The Invitation The invitation uses the same heart image as the Save the Date, but I changed the wording inside of the image. I kept with the simple design style and used the same font and colors as the rest of the Pink Heart set. This is a great wedding set for any Valentine wedding. It has a creative look, captures the theme of the event and is easy to create. I designed everything within a couple of hours from scratch and printed it from a 4-year-old HP OfficeJet G85 inkjet printer. |
