Cricut Debossing Woodgrain Invitations

Hi everyone! My birthday is coming up in August and I have asked for a cricut machine because I have so many DIY ideas for my wedding and life in general!


I would like to make my invitations using the machine but was wondering if anyone has any advice.
I want to deboss each invite with a woodgrain texture and then write over them. I think it’s a pretty simple design but need to make over 100.
Has anyone used their machine to deboss invites? Are there any tips or tricks? I have a year before my wedding so I’m fine with making a few everyday if I have to.
Thanks and happy planning everyone!

    That looks awesome! Good for you Smiley smile - I agree, Jennifer Maker's videos are so helpful. I've just gotten into HTV - so if worst comes to worst, I'll be making my own personalized masks

    Hi Nicole,

    Do you mean lace folders to go around the invitations? Do you have a picture? I am really debating whether I should get a cricut.

    That's great! I've been cutting lace folders for mine. It requires So. Much. Patience. haha


    If you're on Facebook Jennifer Maker is an excellent resource for learning how to use your cricut, and has a great community for troubleshooting!

    Thanks Nicole! Yes I figured this was not going to be a quick task, which is why my plan is to just go slow and do a few at a time. I got a cricut this week for my birthday and have been playing around with it drawing and cutting.

    As a cricut owner I can tell you that just one of these is going to take forever to deboss.
    If you have enough time to do a few a day until they need to be sent out, its definitely be worth it (especially for all the other things you'll be able to do with it,) but definitely look into some tutorials and whatnot so you can see the process!

    I will definitely let you know.. I've got so many project ideas in my head for when I get the circuit!!

    This is similar to what I want to create in terms of the debossed woodgrain texture... the writing I want arranged a bit differently.. https://ohsobeautifulpaper.com/2013/04/katie-andrews-black-and-white-woodgrain-wedding-invitations/

    Hey Sarah, I'd love to see what you make once you get your cricut, I've been thinking about getting one for my mom who is very crafty.

    Do you have any inspo pics for what you want to create?

    Neat project! Try looking up YouTube tutorials. You can pretty much learn how to do anything on there nowadays.
