Getting a printable invitation design is the first step in giving a good impression to your guests. Likewise, printable wall art give a personal touch to your spaces. In this brief guide I will tell you about steps to follow to turn your digital goods into beautiful printed materials.
Whether you want to print at home or order your prints from a local print shop, I intend to answer your questions to print successfully.
Home Printing
I make my designs with home printing in mind hoping it will be a fun DIY project that anyone can do. For home printing, you will need: -A quality printer -Paper * (bond, cardboard, satin paper, or other) -Ruler -Craft Cutting Knife -Any base or cutting mat -A paper cutter (optional) -Scissors (optional) * I recommend using thick cardboard paper. Make sure your printer accepts this type of paper.
Print Shop If you don't have a printer you can print at a local or online print center. In general, the printing centers will deliver in a short time and in good quality. In these places they offer the cutting service at low cost, ask when printing.
I usually send the files ready to print when the size is less than 8.5x11 inches. This means that I add a cut line guide in a light color that is easy for you to cut. It looks something like this:
In this video I show you the next step after printing. Applies to frames and invitations.
