"How To" add a layer to your wedding invitation template

It is super simple to add a bit of flare to your wedding invitations.  I doesn't take any special skills, plus it is quick and easy!  This video is the second in our series on how to use our wedding invitation templates. Here at Ivy Belle Weddings we offer many different color and texture paper options to use as your layer backers.

Layer invitation backers are made out of a heavier paper weight than the invitation itself.  Invitation backers usually can't be printed with a home printer. Standard invitation weight paper is usually 32lb and backers for layered invitations are at least 80lb paper.   We have designed all of our wedding templates so they will work perfectly with  our layered paper, if you decide to cut your own or check out the local the hobby store the size you will need is 5.25 x 7.25 and it will fit into an outer #7 Envelope ( 5.5 x 7.5)

Just to review the sizes: 
- Wedding invitation template is 5 x 7
- Layered Backer is 5.25 x 7.25
- Envelope Size is 5.5 x 7.5

This is important so that everything fits correctly :)  And there is nothing worse then getting your beautiful wedding invitations completed... and not being able to find an envelope to fit!  Visit our website for more how to videos and instructions on creating the perfect wedding invitations.  http://www.ivybelleweddings.com/
