Most birthday party invitations are typical in their layout, which is a folded note card style. I however like to find unique theme driven ways to create my party invitations. Sure all invitations need to have some basic information like Who, When, Where, Why, and RSVP. I like to add in a few others, like a map and a list of things the birthday child likes/enjoys. Presenting all this important information can be done in a variety of creative ways. Look to your theme for inspiration and get those creative wheels turning. Here is a really cute sample of an invitation I custom created for a Buzz Lightyear themed birthday party. I used foam dots to add dimension to Buzz Lightyear and the moon behind him. The important information dangled below on clear string accompanied by cute little green aliens. On the reverse side of the moon, there was a map for guests to familiarize themselves with where the party was taking place. This invitation definitely made a great first impression of the birthday party celebration. You bet party guests were excited to attend this birthday party.
