First Birthday Theme?

I wanted to do Backyard bugs theme for Norah's birthday party because DH bought me this cake pan. (sorry it wouldn't let me PIP it)  I wanted to get invites that had a lady bug, butter fly and bee on them, but haven't really found too many I really like.

I did find this which I like, but think it is a little on pricy side ($1.70/invite)

there is this which I am not a big fan of but is super cheap

image

And this which seems to be resonable ($0.66/invite)

image

Or should I just send out an e-vite? What do you ladies recommend?

Re: First Birthday Theme?

  • I can't imagine spending $1.70/invite, and I actually like the 2nd invite a lot better. It doesn't "match" the paper products, but who cares? It still has the backyard bug theme. It's cute!

    ETA: Oh wait, you were talking about the invites in that picture of paper prodcuts. Yep, I stick with my original choice of option #3

  • Cute theme!

    I vote Option 3 or 4... yes I said 4.

    You could always design something yourself and upload it to VP or something.

    I designed my own and printed for cheap using VP using one of their specials.  I just found free clipart of what I wanted.

  • I like 1, 2, or 4 (Paige's option).  It actually looks like you could actually copy the image on the first invite and use it (if i doesn't have a watermark) to create your own invites in PS or PP.  You could even just order one invite and scan it in to create the rest (unless they have an order minimum).

  • Super cute!  I love that bug cupcake pan, I saw it at BBB or Williams-Sonoma recently (maybe both?)

    I like the 3rd invite option.

  • I like #3 and the price is right. I prefer paper invites b/c I get so much email, and evites tend to slip my mind! (and evite goes to my junk email for some reason).
  • Thanks for the feedback, who doesn't like non-bill/junk mail? I will play around with clip art this weekend and see if I can't design something I like better Smile
