All of these invites are so cool...very inventive everyone

here are mine for this yr

this is scroll I made up

Mine will be done in the form of a summons. I'm throwing a Murder Mystery. I will decorate as though its a morgue and issue summons to be present to identify the body. It's a who don't and a who was it done to.

Still working out the wording...something like:
Your are hereby summoned to appear ...blah blah blah. (Guess I should see a copy of a real summons.)

I've put my first draft for my 2008 Murder Mystery Party in my photo album for "invitations" under 2008

I'm working on mine but I'm not happy with them. I don't have any photo shop stuff and even my "Word" program seems like it's from the 80's. I'm doing a "notice" from the marshal of Tombstone. Basically, the gang responsible for the Wells-Fargo stage coach robbery has been accosted, and all the citizens of Tombstone are invited to join in the celebration. It's a grand neck tie party. I've tea stained the "notice", and I'm working on the envelopes which will be marked "Pony Express". I'm still trying to figure out how to put in all the details - a 2nd page maybe? I'm certainly open to suggestions. I even thought about using small tombstones as the invites. I wouldn't mind doing a "wanted" poster, but haven't been able to come up with the wording. I'll post some pics this weekend and maybe you guys could give me some critiques.

I'm doing a "newsletter" that will be mailed to some and delivered to others. It's 8.5 x 14 with an insert... maybe even burnt edges on the paper.

I'm going to rool them up and put them in a treasure chest and have my 5 year old dress up as a pirate to deliver them. My hope is to have her answer every question with "arghhhh"... but that may be too much to ask! She's the cute vampirate on the cover of the newsletter (she always wears her vampire teeth with her pirate outfit).

Most of the people at the party know each other so will get a kick out of seeing photos of their friends. I had to make a jab at my parents since they always run around at my parties saying "she didn't get this from us!"

(Much of the text in my invite was stolen from an invite posted here by LV Scott T. I'm good at making it "pretty" but LV Scott T and his wife are the creative writers. I have gleaned so many ideas from their website! Hope my "stealing" is OK - that's what happens when you create such a great invite!)

Hazbabu - I LOVE the newsletter. I love all of the graphics!

Elza - The summons is great! Very creative.

I love that summons, it sounds very official. I know I would get a chuckle out of it if I received one of those in the mail.

The newsletter is pretty cool too. You did great work on the pirate graphics.

You folks have offered up so many good ideas, it makes me rethink my initial idea a little bit.
