FREE Printable Oscar Party Invitations {& Gold Glitter Envelopes!}

Most award shows are hit and miss for me, but I LOVE watching the Academy Awards. From analyzing the dresses, makeup, and hair hits and misses on the red carpet, to rating how funny the host is that year, to guessing who and what movies will win, I love it all!

If you love it all, too, then you’re in luck!!

This week on Make Life Lovely it’s all about the Academy Awards.

I’ve got tons in store for you this week, including free printable Oscar party invitations, fabulous food ideas, easy Oscar party decoration ideas, and a complete Oscar party table spread using some amazing finds.

I can barely contain my excitement!

I designed some lovely free printable ticket invitations for you to download, print, and give.

Whether you enjoy a casual get together with friends and family, or love throwing a lavish party for the occasion, these invitations are perfect!

There are four invitations per page.

I print mine at the office supply store so I don’t use up all my black printer ink!

These invitations are part of my Oscar Party I created with World Market.

(These invitations are for personal use only, and are available for free for all followers of Make Life Lovely.)

The only way to make these invitations even better would be to add some gold glitter, so I made some easy gold glitter envelopes that take these invitations over the top!

If you want to add a little glitz and glam to your invitations and party, you have got to try making these.

And did I mention that each envelope literally will take you one minute to make? I used an awesome tool called the Envelope Punch Board, made by We R Memory Keepers. I saw it in action at CHA last month, and just fell in love with it. It’s a simple yet powerful tool that helps you easily and quickly make envelopes. Here’s how…

DIY Gold Glitter Envelopes:

Gold glitter paper (I found mine at Michaels)
We R Memory Keepers Envelope Punch Board
Paper cutter or scissors and ruler
Adhesive

1. Measure your card size, and look on the punch board to see what size to cut your paper. Cut your paper to the correct size. My Oscar invitations are 4″ x 5,” so I cut my paper to a 7.5″ x 7.5″ square.

2. Look where it says “score line” next to the paper size on the punch board.

Line up the left edge of paper to the score line measurement. Punch down to create a notch in your paper, and use the scoring tool to score the paper (which will make it easy to fold).

3. Turn the paper counterclockwise by 90 degrees, and line up the score line to the blue score guide. Punch and score. Repeat on all sides.

Round all of the corners using the reverse punch, which is the back side of the punch that you already used. Fold and glue.

Isn’t it beautiful?

Wouldn’t you love getting one of these beauties in the mail? Your first envelope will take a couple minutes to make, but after that you can make an envelope in one minute, which is very cool.

These tuxedo chocolate covered almonds go perfectly with the the Oscar theme, as do these gold film reel cupcakes that use store-bought cupcakes and are SO easy to put together!

You can see all my party ideas for the Oscars viewing party I created for World Market to get more ideas for your party, too! Happy planning!

Thank you SO much for sharing this free design! I printed the invitations at home and will be using them for my 2016 Oscars party. Having this resource will help keep my costs down on a limited-budget party. However, while I was searching online for other party ideas, I happened to find your free printables that are clearly marked “for personal use only” for sale on Etsy – $40 for 8 invitations (https://www.etsy.com/listing/232789560/oscar-academy-award-party-invitations?ref=unav_listing-other). I just thought you should know.

  I’m so glad you can use the invitations that I designed! And thank you SO much for letting me know about the Etsy seller selling my printables as her own! I’ve contacted her to remove the listing and reported it to Etsy. $40 for 8 invitations that I’m offering for free on my blog? NOT cool.
