When he brought his family out to visit and ski last month, it took him another week after he returned home to tell me that he's planning a big surprise party for Dad's 75th Birthday.
Gee man, I'm glad you told me - so that I can arrange to be home for it!!!
Well, this is an occassion.
My family tends to keep things simple - so my suggestion to make appropriate invitations was way out there!
Until I came up with this:

I think my brother really likes them too. I made them up to be mailed as postcards. The detailed information is on the business side. I mailed the majority to relatives, but my brother will just hand out the rest to folks at home... neighbors, parishoners etc.
I really like how they turned out - except the printer surprised me with the white border. I didn't want - or ask for - the white border. I think that's what he thought of when I said "postcard" though I wish he hadn't.
When he sent me jpgs of the mock ups - I was opening them on a white background so I didn't notice! Boo hiss!
Oh well. No sense wasting more paper and resources just to eliminate the weird little border.
i think that invite is super cute!
