Blue Fortieth birthday invitations

I'm sure I used an online template for this invitation card....just can't remember where I got it! The nice striped paper used is Chatterbox Igloo collection - I found a quote online doing a search for "40th Birthday Quotes"  The inside of the card has a piece of white cardstock with the invite details typed on to it and then glued  into place. This is a great way to mass produce your invites and reduce the errors.

 Digital 40th Birthday Party Invites

I made the invitations in Photoshop Elements.  I scanned a photo of my husband from when we were dating at 17 and layered it with a photo of one of his muscle cars and a more recent photo.  It was to celebrate his 40th birthday, the theme of the party was classic cars (since that is what he is is into).  I had the collage printed as 4x6 photos through Scrapbookpictures.com and then mounted them on black cardstock cards (5x7) and stamped in white along the bottom "Come to a Party" from Hero Arts.
