To be a star, you must shine your own light, follow your own path, and don't worry about the darkness, for that is when the stars shine brightest. -Unknown

You're Cordially Invited...

Create an inexpensive party invitation that will also serve as a keepsake for guests. I used this for Meme's 1st Birthday Party invitations.

  1. Take a picture of birthday girl/boy. (Our theme was Alphabet Zoo- so we took a picture of her in a pink leopard costume.)
  2. Upload photo to local printer (Walmart, Walgreens, CVS)
  3. Select a photo border.
  4. Insert Party information or Party Theme name.
  5. Select how many photo invites you need. (I chose Walgreens and was able to print each photo invite for $0.10 each.)
  6. Purchase large mailing labels.
  7. Print party information on labels.
  8. Stick labels on the back of photos.
Guests can then frame photos.
No more wasted paper invitations!
