Vintage Children's Birthday Invitations - Deer and Bird, Boy or Girl with Cake

Hello all! It's been awhile since my last post. My holiday from my Etsy shop lasted a bit longer than I expected, but it was nice to have a bit of a break. Now I'm back with you, and have some adorable new invitations to share with you. They feature vintage birthday card images, one with a child, another with an adorable deer and bird. 

Let's start with the deer - it's my favorite! I used my popular bunting design and added the adorable vintage deer image. It reminds me of Bambi, and I love the little blue bird pulling on the ribbon. So sweet. This invitation is available as a little girl's birthday party invitation, with colors in pink, yellow, blue,  purple and lavender. You have the choice of the kraft cardboard background, or a solid color, such as white or pink. I love the softness the kraft background provides, but the solids remind me of the vintage birthday cards which I also love. 

This invitation would work wonderfully for a woodland themed party, an "oh deer" party, or a vintage children's book party. I've seen so many cute ideas for children's book parties, as I'm sure you have as well. 

Here are a few of the color options for the invitation:

The next few feature a boy or girl with their birthday cake and a stuffed bunny rabbit. The bib has a small yellow duck on it as well. The colors for the boy are blue, green and yellow, whereas for the girl they are pink, purple and yellow. 

Here are the first birthday invitations for a little boy:

Invitations for a one year old girl:

Hope you like the vintage images as much as I do!! I will be offering the deer invitations for a baby girl's baby shower in the near future, so stay tuned!

If you're planning a deer-themed birthday party, here are a few adorable party decorations to go along with the vintage invitations.

Christmas Mason Jar and Holiday Flowering Tree Party Invitations

I'm so excited to share some new invitation designs with you. I've been meaning to create some Christmas invitations with my popular mason jar theme, and I finally got around to getting them finished! The first set turned out really cute, with red, green and cream mason jars, hanging from a string of lights. These are available for a Christmas party, gift exchange, cookie or ornament swap, holiday rehearsal dinner, engagement party, wedding shower, baby shower, Wedding invitations, etc. Any event you'd like. 

I've also started a new option of adding a matching back side design to coordinate with the front side of the invitation. You can also purchase a back side with text if you have additional details you want to add for guests. 

Here are the vintage hanging mason jar invitations:

Love the vintage feel of these invitations! You can choose the color for the names and ampersand as well, so please be sure to include that with your order. 

I also have a new design combining the Christmas mason jar invitations above with my popular holiday flowering tree design. I altered the colors a bit to brighten them up, then added a few hanging mason jars. These are also available with just the front side of the invitation, with a matching back side, or with a back side with text. 

Below you can see examples of the holiday flower tree with hanging mason jars invitations:

Hope you enjoy the new holiday mason jar designs!

If you're hosting a holiday party, shower, rehearsal dinner, etc, and need some coordinating decorations, see the adorable mason jar decorations below!

Scrapbook Monday: 12 Months

Happy Monday, and happy Columbus Day! Not sure how you're supposed to celebrate Columbus Day, but I'm thoroughly enjoying my day off from the federal government! Hope you're having a lovely day as well. :)

Just wanted to share a quick scrapbook page with you. This is one that I didn't plan out a whole lot ahead of time, but it still turned out cute. I'm still trying to work on my perfectionist tendencies, and to simply go with the flow. I'm able to complete pages in much less time this way. How do you approach your pages? I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments section!

For this page I used a few items from various Studio Calico kits. I love the pink feather paper - one of my favorites. I wanted to use pink and silver accents, and I think it turned out pretty cute.  :)

For the metal "XO" accent, I wasn't sure how to attach it the page, as there isn't a good backing for adhesive. I decided to use some thread. I simply pierced a hole in the photo and paper, all the way through. I placed the accent over the photo to use as a guideline for the 6 holes. Then I simply used a needle and thread from the back side, and looped over the rim once, then back through second hole. Repeat two more times and you're done. Remember that stitching and sewing are great ways to add texture and visual interest to your pages.

Thanks for stopping by! Until next time....

Aviator and Airplanes Birthday Party Invitation

Hope you're having a lovely Saturday! I just wanted to share some new invitation designs with you. I love the way these turned - bright colors with blue, red and yellow. The feature a little aviator, vintage-style airplanes, and even a helicopter. Every little boy's favorite forms of transportation.  :) 

I have two options. The first has several airplanes, and your choice of six background designs. 

The second features a large airplane flying with an "Up, Up & Away" banner, above the clouds. I added the birthday boy's age on the plane propellers, and I love the way it turned out. He's flying high in the clouds!

Both invitation designs are available for any age, and could even be made into baby shower invitations if you're planning an airplane-themed shower. You can find the invitations in my Etsy shop here. 

Planning an airplane theme for your little boy's birthday? Here are some coordinating birthday party decorations to go along with my invitations. Should make shopping for decorations a breeze!  ;)
