Yep FREE birthday party invitations that are also awesome. These are 5 x 7 invitations that you can customize with your birthday party information.
Last year when we uploaded printables for Ramona’s airplane party, the number one question we got was “Can we have the birthday party invitations too?”…. Unfortunately, I lost the file and didn’t feel like recreating it. Not that I’m lazy, but it isn’t a simple process.
Above is the invite I designed for this year’s party. Before I got going I wanted to do one that anyone could download, customize, and use (for personal use obviously). I made two copies this year – one boy-ish, one girlish – that would allow people to change (most of) the text like the name, date, etc. Some of the type treatments had to be dropped, but I think they still look pretty splendid.
To download and use these party invitations just right-click and select save-as for the invite you want – pink or green. If you click on the invite, it will pop up as a pdf and won’t allow you to input your information properly. Remember right-click and select the save-as option to be able to customize the invite.
We’ve seen some issue with the Preview app on Macs, so don’t use or it will look weird. Make sure you open the file in Adobe Reader. You can select “highlight existing fields” to show the areas where you customize your text. Note the background is still the same blue. It’s only highlighted to show you where to pop in your child’s name, date, and location to personalize the invitation to your party specifications.
If your computer doesn’t default to Adobe Reader, then right-click your saved invitation, select “open with” on the menu, then click Adobe Reader.
These invites would work great for a circus or animal party too! We went with an elephant because the Fort Worth Zoo welcomed 2 (!!!) baby elephants this year. Can you imagine being the mother of twin elephants?
Amber is over at A Bubbly Life sharing her tutorial on Ramona’s lace crown. Make sure to check it out.
We will be back tomorrow with 1 more birthday DIY with printable!
**Remember these invites are for personal use only. You may not sell them. Also if you blog about the invites, please be kind and reference back to us.
Love the invitations and Ramona’s hair and crown is so pretty!
It says the page doesn’t exist at a Bubbly Life
My post went live before hers! Oops. I’m clearly a pro at this blogger thing. It’s up now!
Thank you! I have my little sister do Ramona’s hair. I don’t understand how she gets it so perfect!
This is such a wonderful b/day invite. I love that elephant! And Ramona in her crown. That hair is down right royal!
Thank you! Neither one of us have great hair, so I’m not sure how hers ended up so gorgeous!
This is awesome. Pinning!
Thanks so much! I can see you throwing an epic party for Henry with these!
she is just the cutest! and i adore the invitations!
Aw thanks!
I love that invite and the little crown! So nice of you guys to share the printables too
Thanks! It’s all Nick. He had to do a few extra hours of work to make it printable for all. He’s pretty awesome.
That invitation is fabulous. As is the picture of Ramona with her crown!
Thank you! We had to have a special reshoot just for the crown tutorial pics. Ramona plays the part of model a little too well. She was overly sassy that day and asked if “the people on the internet are going to like her outfit.” Can’t make this stuff up.
You guys are perfect. I can’t handle it.
We try. Ha! Nick is pretty good at this stuff!
Hi – thank you for the download, it is perfect for my son’s birthday party!
You are so welcome! Have fun planning and prepping for the big day!
