When i had T2's party, scrapblog was popular but now it is no longer free. Any suggestions on another site similar? Or can you recommend a seller on etsy? Honestly, I prefer not having to design and print on my own because I am lazy and not crafty. I know what i want for T3's first birthday invites but just can't find the right one

Re: invitation design site
we do big parties in our family and i love the planning so disregard my craziness if you don't agree with the big first birthday to-do. We are renting my cousin's hall and my dad is going to do the magic show (yes, he is a professional magician lol). Theme is going to be polka dots, bright pink, white and turquoise. all inspired from this adorable dress that will need to be hemmed due to Anna being vertical challenged:
Not as fun as JD's cowboy hoedown but I am just starting the planning.

Hungry Caterpillar or Cat in the Hat would be a fun theme, there are tons of party ideas out there for those

we thought of the hungry caterpillar since we read it to him all the time (started that one in the nicu when he needed to get fat to come home), but i feel like its super popular lately. i just don't want his first bday party to have the same theme as one of the bazillion cousins he has. i guess some snooping would take care of that. yeah- obnoxious first time mom here.
Kel - I love this site. This is where we ordered our Christmas cards and they came out awesome.

They aren't the cheapest, but they are really nice to quality and there are tons of designs to choose from.
i found an etsy seller for ari's 1st bday. let me see it i can find her...she sent you the digital file and you had them printed. invites, ty, favor tags, candy wrappers...

we did the lollipop theme...sooooo cute
and she was very nice and quick.
I second etsy. I found lots of great choices there. I ended up with this one: http://www.etsy.com/transaction/45785652 Super happy with it. Printed them at mixbook.com, they were the cheapest at the time for 5x7 cardstock printing.
Love the dress!
Jewels- love tinyprints, I got our xmas cards from there and JD's birthday ones
Anna- funny you said that, I found a really cute lollipop invite today that may be the winner. I will check out the seller you mentioned too
Thanks!

I got Danica's Baptism invites (yes, we're finally getting around to having her baptized) from Tinyprints. I liked the quality and since I needed them in a rush, I ordered them Tuesday night and they were on my front porch at 10:30AM on Thursday.
Also, I'm totally not judging your big 1st birthday bash. We've always had big parties for everything in my family and we had a big party for Hunter, too. I will say, though, that his birthday is in June so we had about 70-80 people over to my mom and dad's house at the time and everyone partied outside. DH has a big family (being 1 of 6) and my dad was 1 of 8. It's nice having a Spring/Summer baby. It gives you more options. I also love your theme! I'm not sure what we're going to do just yet but it's obvi going in include pink.
tiny prints is awesome, but pricey. i used them for ari's christening.
if u couldnt find the girl on etsy...try googling her business' name
