How do I browse the design catalogue?

By Nimanto 2 min read

In short

Open the catalogue, pick an occasion in the list, and use the Price filter or the search box to narrow the designs. Each tile shows the whole first page; Preview plays the design with its envelope and effects, and Use this design starts your invitation.

Every invitation starts from a design in the catalogue. The catalogue holds both kinds of invitation, so the first choice is which kind you want.

Signature or Card

At the top of the designs sits a switch: Signature invitation or Card invitation. A Signature invitation is the full scrolling invitation with an envelope opening, pages, a schedule, photos and the reply. A Card invitation is one painted card in an envelope, with the details under it. Some occasions offer only cards; their pages open on the Card side by themselves. See Signature vs Card invitations.

Narrow the designs

  1. Choose an occasion in the Occasion list (Wedding, Birthday, Baby, Party, Festivals & holidays, Corporate), then a sub-occasion such as Indian wedding or Kids' birthday.
  2. Use the Price filter: All, Free or Premium.
  3. Type a word in the search box, such as "Diwali", "minimal" or "gold".

More designs draw themselves as you scroll towards the end of the grid. Show more stays under the grid in case your browser needs it.

What a tile tells you

Each tile shows the whole first page of the design, the screen a guest sees before scrolling. Under it you read the design's name, its occasion, a Premium badge where it applies, and the price as it would apply to you: "Free", "Included" when your plan covers it, or the amount. While the launch discount runs, the list price is shown struck through beside the price. Wedding designs are charged at their list price.

Rest your pointer on a tile (or tap it on a phone) for two buttons:

  • Preview plays the whole design with its envelope and effects, exactly as guests get it.
  • Use this design starts your invitation from it. See Use this design.

Under the grid

When an occasion is chosen, its plain Simple starter design comes last, so there is always something to pick. Below the grid, every design of the occasion is listed by name in two groups, The designs and The cards, with a short guide to the occasion.
