Has anyone used their digital supplies to create pretty party invitations? I have been tasked with creating something for my Mother-in-law’s 90th birthday and I’m a bit intimidated by doing things for her. I have made children’s invites in the past but nothing that would be acceptable for this party.

If you have done anything similar or seen invitations, particularly ones made with SSD products I would love it if you could share and help to jumpstart my creativity.

Thanks Jacinda, I have looked at all of those and some I have used before but I am hoping to make them with a scrapbook kit. I’m hoping to see some with more dimension.

I made this for my daughter's birthday, supposedly an invitation, but since we have the pandemic, I just edit it and made it as a 'birthday schedule/activity' (morning till night)

I don't know the size because I just winged it, but here's the link (https://app.box.com/s/sibrijqiw268sswmeyttmd4alep5pm5y) of the 8.5x11 page that you can check, if you want to you can see how it looked like on an 8.5x11 paper.

I used Scrap Your Stories: Celebrate (https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/product.php?productid=38640) by Kristin and Megan.

Thanks Cherry, that’s the kind of thing I wanted to see! That is gorgeous. I’m sorry your daughter had to change her plans because of the pandemic but I hope she had a great day anyway. My MIL’s birthday is in September and we are doing really well here in Western Australia so our restrictions have almost all been lifted now. As long we get no new cases we will have life back to normal by then.

I know I've done several but I can't find the others. I would add the details in an email if I'm not printing them. My daughters were born 4 days apart so we do combined parties.

I have done LOTS of invitations with digital supplies. Sadly, I can't access them to share right now. They are on my external drive and not connected to my laptop currently.

I think you could make either of these with SSD supplies. Well, you could probably make any of them lol, but I know a kit for these two. :)

There is a paper or two that would work as the bokeh background in the first option in A Star is Born bundle by Traci Reed.

And many kits have beautiful, glittery/diamond-y scatters that you could use for the second, which is very formal and beautiful. Wonderful for a 90th--happy birthday to your MIL!

This is one that I am working on now, I've done others in the past for kids' birthdays.

Thanks Lea and Manda, they are beautiful and just what I was thinking.
