Fun Photo Cards and Party Invitations From "Scrapbooking" episode SCB-331

advertisement

An invitation is a great way to introduce your guests to the spirit or theme of an uncoming party. After the party, it can be a coordinating embellishment to a scrapbooking page dedicated to the event. A group photo (or a shot of the guest of honor with each guest) is a great way to personalize a thank you card.

Guest Jill Rinner offers tips for creating cards with a sense of fun.

• Make a fun invitation that highlights a party's theme and colors.

  
  

• During the party, take individual pictures of each guests or a group shot to later create a personalized "thank you" card.

  
  

• Use the invitation on the beginning page of your scrapbook layout to establish color scheme and party theme -- all while giving a sense of time and place.
