Monster Halloween Invitation Cards
Monster party's are great. Love all the different inspiration
available for throwing a great monster bash. We have a simple
invitation that we made for our dd's sixth birthday party, Her
birthday falls a week before Halloween so this year she wanted a
Halloween-Birthday party. The most kid friendly theme that we
found appropriate was a Monster Party. We looked at all the different
monsters from movies, books and the toy shop. We really liked the idea
of a one eyed monster. (we thought of 'Where the wild things
are" but they were a little to scary for our little ones. Her
birthday cake will be in the image of the invitations - a blue cake
board with a yellow monster, I can't wait to make it!

Invitation assembley
-
Cut and fold the blue card for the base.
-
Cut out your monster shape from yellow corrugated cardboard and position it at the bottom of the card in the middle.
-
Carefully position and glue your eye onto the monster shape. You may need to fill in the groves on the monster first to ensure it sticks properly.
-
Draw on a smile with the black sharpie marker. Cut out small triangle fangs and stick them to the card too.
-
Cut out a rectangle from the red cardboard and center it near the top of the card.
-
On your computer print up the words 'Monster Bash'. Cut it out a little smaller than the red rectangle and glue it to the red card.
