How to Make Your Own Printable Birthday Invitations Online

If you are planning a birthday party, a number of online sites allow you to design invitations online and print them out. Although selections may be limited on these websites, they are a cost-effective solution for a birthday party. While some websites allow you to make invitations online free of charge, others will charge a fee. Whatever site you select will help you create professional-looking invitations that are easy to make and inexpensive.

Instructions

1. Create a list of websites that allow you to create printable birthday invitations online and choose one that fits your needs. Some websites require that you become a member and pay a fee, but they may also give you more flexibility when designing your card, such as uploading your own pictures or changing the images on the card. There are also free sites that allow you to create a simple, functional birthday invitation card.

2. Locate the birthday invitations page and click the design that suits your party. Sites that allow you to create birthday invitations have different types of designs, from casual to elegant, to meet the needs of your event. These cards are pre-made, which will help you get ideas on how to design your card. You can tweak the design depending on the tools available on the website. Clicking the card will take you to a page where you can edit the card.

3. Type the birthday information on the card. This includes the celebrant's name, the event's date and time, the address of the venue, and RSVP details. To make the card more personal, add a message such as "It's Anna's Birthday! Come join us for an afternoon of drinks, food and a good time."

4. Format the card. Depending on the services of the website you are using, you may be able to change the font type and color. Format your card to complement the design elements. You also may be able to change the background, borders and images. Add elements to make it more festive and geared towards a birthday party, such as balloons and gifts.

5. Select the layout and print the card. You may have several options to choose from, such as a four-fold card that takes up a whole 8.5- x 11-inch sheet or a one-page card that take up a quarter of a 8.5- x 11-inch sheet. Click "File," then "Print" and tweak the settings so it will print as intended. The website that you used to create the printable invitation may have instructions that will help you print out the invitation correctly.
