Vintage Circus Party Invitation -DIY Touches

August 12, 2012

I had so much fun creating the invite for the girls’ Vintage Circus Birthday Party!
The party invitation is the first detail of the party your guests will see…
So I always love announcing the theme in a fun way!
For the girls’ party last year I did a pop up invite like a storybook
since it was a storybook princess party..
that invite had a little map to the once upon a time land. :)
I think I like how this invite came together the best..
The girls LOVED the tickets.. and Sophie played “people” with
all the cut out stickers of her and sienna while I addressed the envelopes.
Circus Invitation Supplies:
–Ticket Roll…..Party City – $3.99
(500 count..using at party itself)
–Star Confetti…..Michael’s $1.59
— Invitation….I designed in Photoshop and
printed on full label sheets then attached to yellow
cardstock so there was color on the other side.
(already had card stock and full label sheets)
–Sticker Seals..I designed in Photoshop and then printed onto full label sheets.
–Envelopes…Staples Brand.
I addressed the envelopes with a hot pink sharpie..
and sealed with the sticker.
I had to work in the tutu shots I took of them. ;)
I seriously am in love with the star confetti from Michael’s.
I only used a few pinches in each envelope..
so I plan on using the rest at the party. somehow!

    Oh, how cute!!! I’m almost ready to be very bold, invite myself to the party and fly from Europe (where I live) to the USA, just to celebrate this party with you and your girls.
    Can you please make a tutorial of how you use photoshop for making those great invitations (or other things you create with photoshop)?
