Personalized invitations!

I think that my FAVORITE thing to work on is invitations! I just love creating something fresh and new and completely personalized. It is also sometimes the first inspiration for what the rest of the party will look like!

My love of invitations first started when I was looking for my daughter's first birthday party. I was just going to go on tiny prints or snapfish to order an invitation with Natalie's photo, mostly because I didn't know what else was out there. Luckily, Rachel suggested we MAKE them ourselves. They turned out SO SUPER CUTE!!! We started with one tiny image: A pink and purple snowman! Then all the decorations came together form there!

I was so excited to send them out and share them with people! And it makes such a wonderful keepsake for scrapbooks!

Here was Natalie's Winter One-derland themed invite!


I was so excited about this one! The little rose petals open to reveal an embossed, white "N" at the top followed by the party information. Featuring blue sparkly embossed snowflakes and the super cute little pink snowman that a good friend of mine who is a graphic designer designed specially for Natalie! <3

We also did Wesley's Robot themed invite! We used Silver shimmer card stock (from Paper Souce) and printed the info on smaller yellow card stock! Then embossed the robot on the bottom with black ink! That little robot stamp was the start of the robot themed birthday party!


After this, we made these dinosaur themed ones for Connor's first birthday. We LITERALLY squealed when we finished making these! A dino with a birthday hat that pops off the page???? Could it be any cuter? Seriously! Check our other post for the matching dinosaur decorations! :)



We also played around with some cute bumble bee invites too! How cute is this little guy or gal?? Finished off with two little jewels for cheeks!! So much fun! Great for all those summer birthdays!
