As well as the advantage of saving money, one of the best parts about making yourself is that everything can look exactly as you’d like it — and let’s be honest, what bride doesn’t want that?

Here, you’ll see a selection of templates for previous PaperCrafter projects that you can use for your big day. Just find patterned papers to suit your theme and go to town with the embellishments.
