Fill-in-the-blank Versus Printable Birthday Invitations

Every special occasion deserves great stationery, and your birthday party is no exception! From the fold of the card to its color, the right kind of birthday party invitations can make or break your party.

When announcing the big day, a person has to ask themselves, “Should I print the birthday invitations or should I opt to write out all the information by hand?” The answer will vary depending upon your personal style, party size, and available printer specs. Indeed, there are some distinct differences between fill-in-the-blank and printable stationery.

Opting for Printable Birthday Invitations

Printable birthday invitations are a popular option, especially for those who want a professional look, but do not want to pay the high costs of a professional printer. With the wide array of appealing styles and themes, even the most fashion-forward party planner can find the perfect printable birthday invitations.

Because they can be printed from home, printable birthday invitations typically include easy-to-follow directions. Limitless in the number of birthday announcements that can be printed, people who have large guests list often enjoy sending this type of invitation.

Precautions to Take with Printable Birthday Invitations

With this in mind, there are several precautions you should take with printable invitations. To accommodate for potential printing mistakes and jams, it is recommended that you purchase 10% or 20% more extra invitations than your guest list needs. This will ensure that you will have sufficient birthday invitations, even if you make a mistake with the wording.

In addition, you can take action to prevent printer jams when creating your birthday invitations. Printer jams cost both time and money, but feeding a few sheets of paper at a time will help avoid a catastrophe from happening.

Noting whether you have the right type of printer to do the job is also essential before starting the task. For example, if you have an ink-jet printer, make sure that the printable invitation is compatible and not only designed for laser printers. You should also pay attention to the size of the invitation because printing programs are usually only set to print on standard sized paper measuring 8.5’ x 11’.

The Convenience of Fill-In-The-Blank Birthday Invitations

Fill-in-the-blank cards are convenient, and they are ideal for parties that have small guest lists. Without worrying about printer jams and formatting, you can simply write out the details for your birthday bash. In addition, in today’s modern digital world, your handwriting can be a nice personal touch. However, for larger parties with guest lists greater than 10, it may be more time-efficient to simply use printable birthday invitations.

Comparing the Text between Fill-In and Printable Birthday Invitations

Because there is a limited amount of space on the front of a fill-in-the-blank card, party details should be short and to the point. You may also need to browse through a variety of options before finding the fill-in-the-blank birthday invitation that has the right tone and style for your party. However, from formal and elegant wording to casual and witty templates, there are a wide variety of fill-in birthday invitations.

On the other hand, printable stationery may allow for more information to be added to the invitation. Printable invitations look professional and eliminate confusion where messy handwriting is concerned. If your penmanship resembles that of a doctor’s, consider spending extra time printing your birthday invitations so that your guests will be able to read the invitation without any hassle. Or, if your heart is set on fill-in birthday invitations, enlist the help of a friend with the writing process.

Although both types of stationery have their advantages, only you can choose the right kind of birthday invitation for your big celebration. Whether you write in the information yourself or print it from home, remember this—no one throws a party like you do!
