What to write in maid of honor proposal card
How to Make Your Own Bridesmaid Proposal Cards in 5 Minutes!!
hi everybody
today I am going to be showing you a
super easy way to make personalized
cards for your bridal party these make
really cute cards to go either by
themselves or with a bottle of wine or a
gift box or whatever you have in mind
for your bridesmaid proposal or asking
your wedding party to be in your wedding
anyways I want to just say right up
front before I get started this is gonna
be so easy so don't be intimidated by
the DIY aspect of it it saves a ton of
money and you don't need any special
skills to do this you don't need any
software you don't need any special
fonts you don't need anything but the
template and I leave a link below so
that you can download the template if
you want to use this template if you
have another template that's fine you
can use that or you can use whatever you
want just simply showing you how easy it
is to make your own card as a present a
proposal and these are super cute and
the fact that you're able to put their
name on the card makes it so much more
personal and people really love these so
let's go ahead and get started the first
thing I'm going to do is pull up
PicMonkey see I already have it up here
and all you're going to do is go to the
internet and go to WWE COO comm and then
you're going to click on edit because at
this point you will have already
downloaded the template and it'll be
saved on your computer somewhere so
you're going to hover over edit and a
menu will pop up and you're going to
click on computer and then you're going
to find the file so I'll just pull up
the bridesmaid one when you download the
template it's gonna come to to a sheet
to make it there's a few things a it's
cheaper to print because you can print
more than one Pro sheet and you can also
edit it really quickly so it's comes on
8 to 1/2 by 11 inch size and all you do
is print it out on white cardstock
after you put the name on and that's it
you just print it so you can see here it
comes like this on an eight-and-a-half
by eleven inch sheet and it has two
cards so what you what you get is these
two templates side by side and all you
have to do is add the name right here
above the little flower image the will
you be my bridesmaid is already in place
as I graphic along with the flowers and
when you download the templates not only
do you get the will you be my bridesmaid
but you get the will you be my matron of
honor you get the will you be my maid of
honor and you get the will you be my
flower girl so you get the entire set
when you download it
not just the bridesmaid so I'm just
showing you this as a sample for example
purposes and so you can see how it's
done but when you download the templates
you get everything so here you have an
eight-and-a-half by eleven inch sheet
and you can see right up at the top this
little grey notch that's your cutting
line so when you you're done and you
print this off you're just gonna cut it
straight down the middle starting on
this notch here all the way down the
middle here use a paper cutter I would
recommend a paper cutter because it's
easier but if not you can use scissors
and you just cut straight down and then
each card you just fold it in half and
it becomes a folded card and it's blank
in sight so you can write a special note
if you want to or put a picture or
whatever you want in there so I'm just
gonna show you quickly how to edit these
you're gonna go over here to the left
side and you're going to click on this T
icon for text and what it's going to do
is it's going to bring up a few things
it's going to bring up all of the fonts
that you have available to use within
PicMonkey um
most of them are free some of them are
premium bonds but really you don't it's
not necessary to be a premium member
because they have so many cool ones for
free or alternatively if you have a font
already downloaded on your computer that
you want to use a really cool font that
you really like you would click right
here where it says yours and it will
pull up all the fun so you already have
downloaded on your computer so that you
can use those but just for the tutorial
purpose I'm going to use their version
and I'm going to use all the free fonts
so you can see how easy it is and
doesn't cost any money to do so I'm
going to go ahead and I'm just going to
use this pretty one right here
free Parisien I think it's pronounced
I'm probably saying it wrong but this
really pretty font here is free and you
gotta click on it and you're gonna just
click add text and it'll bring up a box
for you to type a name into and all
you're gonna do is type in the name of
your bridesmaids or your wedding party
and then you're gonna save and you're
gonna print so here's the text box I'm
gonna drag it over here right above the
floral image about here and I'm gonna
double click inside and I'm just gonna
type the names of one of my prospective
bridesmaids so let's just say Lauren and
then I'm gonna highlight it I'm gonna
come over here to the right and I'm
going to Center it and this button right
here you can slide it left or right to
make your text bigger or smaller so I'm
going to make it bigger I'm going to
slide it to the right till it's about
there see I like how that looks so there
you go
Lauren will you be my bridesmaid and
then I'm gonna simply click on that text
and then I'm gonna right-click and I'm
gonna choose duplicate text and I'm
going to slide it over here on the
second card about there okay and that's
it you're done now you have two
bridesmaids cards ready to go now
they're both not going to be Lauren
obviously but I'm just showing you what
they look like side-by-side this would
be a different name where and if you
have two Laurens great but you get the
idea
and then all you're gonna do is you're
gonna save it to your computer click
export' it's gonna bring up a place
where you can name your file and then
you're just gonna save it right onto
your computer desktop or whatever area
you want to save it so I'm just gonna
bridesmaid cards I leave the quality
right here it's just fine the way it is
and I click export to your computer I'm
gonna put it on my desktop
and that's it you're done it's ready to
print so now all you have to do is print
it on white cardstock which you can get
at any craft store Walmart anywhere
online or if you don't want to print it
on at home you can print it using a
print vendor like Vista Print we also
will leave a link below to the vendor
that we like to use or you can use a
local coffee shop like FedEx Kinkos
office max those type of places you can
also print it there really easily again
you're just gonna print on white
cardstock you're gonna cut right here
all the way down the middle and then
you're just gonna fold each card in half
and you'll end up with two cards blank
on the inside or if you don't want a
folded card that's blank on the inside
you can just cut it in half here and
then you just can cut it across here and
you can just have two little like post
cards that you can include in an
envelope where you can put it in a gift
bag or however you want to do it you can
even print this on label paper and make
them into stickers it's awesome and let
me tell you it took what a few minutes
to do this very easy to do beginners can
do it anybody can do it you don't have
to have special skills or software you
don't have to have Photoshop or anything
like that it's really easy to do and you
guys it's really affordable so if you
have any questions please feel free to
