Read the step by step instructions below and download our easy-to-use printing templates to assemble this invitation at home.
Step One: Print The Bar Or Bat Mitzvah Invitation
Print the invitation card that measures 3 7/8 x 6 3/4 inches using Microsoft Word and our easy-to-use template available for download below. Simply open the template in Word, then replace the placeholder text with your own wording. When you're ready to print, you will need to specify a custom paper size for the printer. To do this on a PC, go to File, Print.. in Word and click on the Properties button. In this window there should be a tab called Paper/Quality where there is a menu of common sizes. Enter a custom size of 3.88 inches wide by 6.75 inches tall, the same dimensions that should already appear under Page Setup for the document size.
The wording we've used includes a blank space below the child's name to place one of our silver metallic brads. Alternatively you could punch a hole in the card and secure the card to the backing card using our self-adhesive bows (place the adhesive strip over the hole to fasten the two layers together). If you need help getting started with your wording, see the sample wording on our Bar Mitzvah Invitation Wording page.

Step Two: Secure The Invitation To The Backing Card
Once you have printed your invitation, the next step is to secure it to the backing layer. You can use a brad or bow as mentioned above, or you could use our double-sided tape dots, glue marker, or ordinary glue stick. You can also choose to place the invitation at an angle to the backing card as we've done or vertically for a more traditional framed look. Experiment according to your preference.
Step Three: Print The Envelope
The final step is to print the Stardream A9 envelope measuring 5 3/4 x 8 3/4 inches.
