Loading ...Les Petites Chefs Invitations
Looking to whip up a cooking party for your child’s next party? If so, I have to pass on this amazingly creative invitation that Design Mom has designed for her Les Petites Chefs party for her daughter’s upcoming party. I love homemade invitations like these that deliver something useful and thematic to get your guests in the party mood. Look at how she used different kitchen shapes and tucked in the party details on an additional card as well. The whimsical ribbon is quite sharp too!
Great design!

Contributed by: Amy, Scottsdale Arizona
It is a little different, but after going through many birthday parties and NEVER getting RSVPs I have devised a trick. It doesn’t work for family members, but I don’t feel bad calling them to see if they are coming…but, for school friends…

Today, Courtney has some great ideas and tips for your kids’ party invitations, where each and every party begins, of course!
- I’m a big fan of custom invitations whenever possible. It helps raise anticipation for the event and makes people (even the parents) want to come to the party. So many moms are into scrapbooking these days. Why not create an invite with the same methods and materials you would use in scrapbooking? This can become a real momento of the event and is worthy of then being put in an album or a…well…scrapbook for future memories.
- If you’re not into scrapbooking, head to Target and buy a package of print-your-own invitations. They offer lots of designs that are fresh, fun, and compatable with any home computer/printer.
Try a specialty stationery store with cute and different invitation styles…have them printed up for you or fill them out yourself. (But please…please…use nice handwriting.) - For a birthday party I gave for my youngest – in the midst of Christmas and decorating for a huge wedding – I was short on time…so I filled out invitations by hand with a large crayon and childish (but still neat) handwriting. It was actually a pretty cute look.
- For the Elmo party, I purchased a font at www.myfonts.com that looked just like the crayon writing in “Elmo’s World”. That font, combined with colorful scrapbook paper and some Elmo clipart, made a super-cute and custom invitation.

Loading ...Birthday Party Snub?
I recently addressed my daughter’s class regarding Diabetes, type 1 and 2, and discussed what each were and how this affects my daughter. The class already knew about her disease because she discusses it openly herself. Since giving this talk to the class, my daughter has not been invited to any birthday parties. She feels snubbed and thinks the parents are worried about handling the sugar issue at the party. How can I find out if this is the case and do something to help the situation? I feel like I made it worse having given this open talk to the class?
One thing to keep in mind is to make sure that this is the reason your daughter is not being invited is due to this situation instead of other reasons, i.e. not being close to the birthday child or the other families limiting the number of kids being invited.
