Looking for darling Robot party cards to match your upcoming Robot-themed party?  At Home With Kim Vallee showcased some friendly Robot Cards that are both unique and darling all at once.  I like the idea of friendly robots to add atmosphere to a child’s robot party, how about you?

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!

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.
