Free Black and White Wedding Invitations

Click on the free printable wedding invitation template to see it full size and download it.

This free flat panel A7 (5" x 7") black and white wedding invitation template has a classy flourish pattern that looks elegant whether used vertically or horizontally. (See below for an example of a vertical wedding invitation using this design.)

All you have to do is download the artwork and click the button at the bottom of this post to go to my free printable wedding invitations hub. There you'll find all the instructions you need for implementation, plus 11 more free designs. I've also provided some wedding invitation wording samples on that hub, if you need a little help with that. There's even sample commitment ceremony wording, because not every couple that loves each other is allowed to get married.

The background on this invitation design is white, so this design has maximum versatility. If you use a pastel or even richly colored card stock, the black motif on the side will layer over it and look lovely. Of course, you could also use white or ivory stock. You might even want to try one of the beautiful opalescent card stocks out now. They'll give you a fancy look for a relatively un-fancy price. 

Here's a sample using this black and white wedding invitation design. (Double-click it to see it full size and then use your imagination as to where the outer edge is on the right side.)


I hope you find this wedding invitation template helpful and that your wedding or commitment ceremony is everything you want it to be.

Free Valentine Party Invitations

Click on the free printable valentine party invitation to see it full size and download it.

This free printable Valentine's Day party invitation has a design that should look familiar to young and old. It features pastel candy hearts, the kind that kids have loved to exchange (and eat) on Valentine's Day for decades. Because these candy hearts have been around for generations and are a part of so many people's memories, this valentine invitation is perfect for either kids Valentine's Day parties or for more sophisticated events thrown by adults. The illustrations incorporated into the design come from Picnik, the free online graphics program anyone can use. It's an amazing program. Check it out!

The art for this invitation is in a square format but you don't necessarily have to use it that way. (To see instructions for creating square invitations or to order from a selection square envelopes offered by Amazon, visit my free valentine party invitations hub.) You can also use the art as a rectangular card. For example, you could place the art on the top two-thirds of a 5" x 7" card, then tie a ribbon with a fun printed pattern around the bottom of the card. If you do, it might be a good idea to use some dry adhesive strips or dabs of glue to make sure the ribbons don't slide off the cards. You might also want to put small bits of glitter glue in the upper right corner of each heart, where there are currently starbursts. This will make the cards sparkle and look like they were professionally produced.

I hope you enjoy using these free printable valentine party invitations and that they make your Valentine's Day that much sweeter.If you'd like some matching clip art, visit my free valentine clip art hub.
