Invites, Thank You Cards and FREEBIES!

Last month was my daughter's 5th birthday. She's really into ponies, cowgirls, etc... So, of course, I had to do something with that sort of theme. Since I like to start my party planning by making the invitations first, I went on over to Scrap Orchard and searched for western themed digital scrapbook kits. I found Life is Like a Rodeo (talk about perfect!) from Captivated Visions and I already had Chelle's Cowgirl Up kit from a previous project. I used these to make my invite.

My daughter and nephew *almost* share a birthday so we combined their party and this is the invite I made. Cute, huh?

I turned it into a template for Y'all. ;) I did previously give this away on my facebook page but wanted to post it here in case you missed it. Just click the image to download.

After the party, I decided to use the same kits to make thank you cards to give to those who came to the party and for those who gave gifts. 

And I made one with pictures of both birthday kids. I just wrote little notes on the back of each card telling everyone how thankful we were that they helped celebrate her birthday and to thank them for the gifts.

And of course, I had to turn them into templates for you!

And here are some pics of the birthday kids. Kyla loves ponies, and I have a super sweet friend who has a pony. She let us come to her house for the party. Kyla got her birthday wish: to ride a pony.

Here are both birthday kids. Not the best of pics but it was over 100 degrees outside that day, and I just wanted to make it through the party!

I hope this will help you make some personalized digital scrapbook invites and don't forget those thank you cards!
