Tips
Good to know
Themes are quick-fill, not a lock-in. Picking a theme sets the floral colours, palette, and background — tweak any of them individually afterwards.
Leave a field empty to skip it. Blank lines simply don’t appear on the invitation — every text field is optional.
Florals follow the theme’s colour story. The arrangements are rendered in shades of the theme’s floral colours — “None” placement plus no decor gives you pure typography on paper texture.
String lights default to on. Uncheck the toggle for a clean, unadorned top edge.
No reference photo by design. This is pure stationery — the subject is the text itself. Soft, diffused lighting is always requested.
Depth Maps are a versioned, chainable workflow. After generating, pick a map from three one-click generators: Clean Text Mask (strictest text-only isolation), Flat Text Map (Raised Letters) (uniform-height text for engraving), or Full Photographic Depth Map (3D scene layered by distance — flowers and text bright white, string lights medium gray, paper solid black). Then refine it with the modifiers, which operate on the currently selected version: Soft Gaussian Blur (bevels the letter edges so a ball-nose CNC bit glides up and down), Slight Blur to Gradients (global smoothing for the Full Photographic map — blends luminance into perfectly smooth ramps for 3D CNC carving), and Invert Colors (flips black ↔ white for CAM/laser software that reads black as highest). Each result lands in the version strip as a new version (your original stays v1), and the pencil button loads that prompt into the refine box so you can tweak the wording first.
Credit cost — same as a standard generation.
