Girls night out - ladies in their 30s are only just hitting their stride. Think style, glamour, sparkle, flirty fun when planning your invitations. An image of a cocktail glass will set a good tone for a ladies night. Or some wild jungle print invitations for fun. Leopard and zebra prints are awesome.

The Graveyard Invitation
This very cool 30th invitation was made by Michael. I don't know exactly what program it is that he used but it is likely to be Photoshop or something similar. This is some very talented work that's for sure! I will try to squeeze out some more details from him about how he made this invite...
It was so long ago (showing my age now) when I made
this invite that I really couldn't tell you what font that is that I
used. I'm thinking it might just be an ordinary serif one, but with
some shadow effect on it. It's been so long since I used Photoshop!
The rest of it: tombstone, grass and sky are all stock images pasted
poorly together and lots of inexpert clone stamping. I wanted it to
look surreal so didn't worry too much about the light being wrong. The
sky had a purple filter applied to it - we don't get skies like that
in Cardiff!
