Let's start at the very beginning...I like my girls' birthday parties to be as handmade as possible. It keeps it nice and low(er) key. I usually try to set the mood with the invitations. For the Wonder Woman/Superhero party, I thought about capes, lassos, or even cutting paper and making one that looked like the
door sign I posted yesterday. The girls also practiced drawing a Wonder Woman image to use for the invitation like
this one. I was bummed that I couldn't find or make exactly what I imagined in my head. But, time was running out and time was short, so I used the invitation that came in the
One Charming Party package. I then packaged the invitation in glitter card stock to create an opening for the invitation and secured the invitation with a Superhero cut out (you could easily use stickers). The only additions I made to the invitation were: I called our home "Superhero Central" and had the parents contact me as "The Commissioner" with their RSVPs. I love little details like that; they really do make a difference. It turned out "super" cute and I ended up really liking it. It just goes to show me that, once again, it doesn't have to be perfect to be beautiful!
Most of the invitations said "Capes and Masks will be provided. Please bring your superpowers." This one must have been my first one!
