Back at the beginning of June, I spotted this adorable invitation project on the lovely Design Sponge. Talk about a fun way to kick off summer! Not only would these be great for a summer party, they'd also make for unique, and informal rehearsal dinner invitations, or post-wedding party invites. Here is my take on Popsicle Invitations, enjoy!
Supplies Needed:a pencil, scissors, glue, popsicle sticks, colored paper of choice, and scrap paper.
First, you will need to create a stencil so that all of your "Popsicles" are the same.
Rip off an appropriate size of scrap paper to work with.
Fold the piece of paper in half to ensure that your "Popsicle" will be symmetrical.
Start to cut out the shape you would like.
Next, print off a copy of the text you would like to have on your invitations. Make sure that your stencil and layout match up okay size-wise.
Then, print out your text on your colored paper of choice.
Trace your stencil over the text.
snip, snip, snip.
Continue until you have cut out all of your invites.
Next, cut out backs for all of your "popsicles" by tracing your stencil on some blank paper.
And glue away...
And there you have it!
Soon to come: homemade envelopes for oddly shaped invitations such as these. Stay tuned!
