About

Hi! My name is Michelle and I’m a stay-at-home mom. (Yep, that’s me and my little orange fairy on Halloween). I love designing wedding invitations and I created Printable Invitation Kits in the hopes of aiding brides-to-be who are planning DIY wedding invitations for their special day. DIY invites are creative, unique, personalized and more affordable than those invitations sold in most wedding invitation providers. The process of creating the wedding invitations is also a fun way to bond with your girlfriends and family, to plan and chat about your wedding. Make it a date, take out the champagne, utilize your working bees a.k.a bridesmaids and catch up with the wedding plans and occasional gossips. It is one of the pleasures of planning a wedding.

Download Our Free Wedding Invitation Designs

This blog provides printable invitation templates that I designed myself. Just browse the pages and download the PDF and/or JPEG files of the design you like and use it for whatever purpose. They are FREE. No BS, no hidden agenda, no ulterior motive or whatever.

Why Free when invitations everywhere else are for sale?

I enjoy the process of designing and I’m happy if others can make use of the designs I make. The site is kept running by what we could earn from Adsense and sponsors. If you’re wondering what you could do to help us, please check out the Support PIK page. And if you’re considering making a donation, I will be happy to use your gift for the site’s maintenance fees. 5 dollars can go a long way for the monthly hosting of the site and it’s certainly just a fraction of what it cost to purchase a commercial invitation. Funds will also be used to purchase graphics and fonts for my invitation designs, to continue providing you with beautiful and free invitation designs.

Inspiration

My inspirations are invitations I can browse in stores and then make something out of it in Photoshop. I am amazed how doable those invitations we see in stores can be with some imagination and resourcefulness.

About Michelle

I’m not a graphic designer nor an illustrator nor an artist for that matter. I just know a little bit about Photoshop and how to use brushes and custom shapes. I’m also resourceful at finding free vectors and cliparts that others share in the internet. And these I put together to create my invitations.

I love looking at beautiful designs and illustrations. I love fonts and drawings and could only marvel at the talent and creativity of the people who make them. When I open a magazine, I not only look at the articles and photos but also pay close attention to the layout, the fonts and colors used on the pages, and the logos of the products. Yes, I’m a geek.

I wish my daughter will have an artistic inclination in the future and be the artist I never was. I guess I would have to influence her early and see if that would help. I also wish she’ll be a singer and a dancer and an actress and a model and a doctor and a teacher and a writer. But I guess I’ll be content if she’ll be a programmer like her dad. A hacker perhaps? That would be so cool coz it sounds so smart.

Lincy, my little daughter, is the bestest, most beautiful and most wonderful child in the world. I’m sure you think your child is wonderful, too, hey- 2nd best is not a bad thing you know. She’s so cute when she poos. She has this intense look of concentration and her face gets a little red. It’s so cute. LOL. Yeah she’s doing it while I write this that’s why it ended up in here.

I love paper. Patterned papers are so pretty. Of course I absolutely have no use for them, so I just content myself at looking at them whenever I went to Michael’s or Robert’s or Walmart. I’ve been meaning to start scrapbooking but didn’t have the inclination yet.

I absolutely loooove reading. I prefer reading over television or movies. When I had pregnancy induced hypertesion or Pre-eclempsia during my pregnancy and the doctor advised to stay in bed and do nothing else (except going to the bathroom), reading was my salvation. I love the YA and Fantasy genre. Some of my favorite series are Vampire Academy, Hunger Games, Harry Potter and many more. If you have books and authors to recommend, please please please drop me a note.

I think Mother Nature is one kick-ass mama. I had the opportunity to visit the Grand Canyon in Arizona and I am in awe of it’s magnificence.

I can’t live without the internet. It is, in my opinion, the most brilliant invention mankind ever made. (Well, maybe second to electricity, I guess). The Internet connects me to family and friends from the Philippines, it birthed Facebook and Google and Skype and many other brilliant websites.

This page has become quite lengthy. If you’ve read this far, thank you for putting up with my blab. My last message to brides-to-be who are planning their weddings is to enjoy your wedding preparations. I remember it was so much fun for me. And very exciting.

Thanks and if there’s anything else I can help you with, do not hesitate to Contact Me.

Best regards,
Michelle
