Birthday Party Invitations

I have done personalized invites for years and the best place (offering and service) is at Paper Lion in McKinney. There are THOUSANDS to chose from and they are organized by category, i.e., girl bday, boy bday, holiday, tea, baptism, etc. They are just awesome. I live in NE Richardson (George Bush & Renner area) and make the drive. Its so worth it. There is also Paperie in Firewheel Town Center. They are good too but don't have the offering and selection. Paper Lion does all of my personal stationary for myself, my children and family. Again, so awesome! They are right off of 75 and Virginia Parkway. Good luck!

Try Butterflies and Bowties in Firewheel behind Pei Wei. They have a lot to choose from and the store has such cute stuff its worth the visit anyway!

I just had my daughter's 1st birthday and I actually found an incredible online service that did a fantastic design:

They have so many to choose from and once I decided what I wanted I was able to work with the artist that designed it and changed the colors to fit what I wanted.

They are wonderful to work with and I was very happy. I did not have the time to go to a shop so this worked perfectly for my busy schedule.

Good luck!

At $4 a gallon, online is the way to go! :) I have also used vistaprint, and it is great!

Also try http://www.partycat.com/. They are out of Austin and make the online process very easy - you get to see a proof before they go final. I have done several shower invitations this way. I also did my daughter's one year invites and they turned out great!

Pomegranates! There's one in Dallas and one in Plano

I read about these web sites in a Consumer Reports mag called "ShopSmart;)," just the other day. CR rated them well on service, but didn't test their products. Still, it may be a good place to start.

Yes! I know someone who is absolutely awesome at personalized invitations, greeting cards, brag books, scrapbooks, gift card holders, and I am sure other stuff. She is really good. Her name is Carrie Hajnal and her e-mail is ____@____.com phone # is ###-###-####.

N.,
I sell CM and we have a program that makes them yourself and or I would be willing to do them for you. Get with me if you are interested. We can put his picture on them and do whatever you would like.

I have had really good luck in the past with Vista Print. They are online, have templates, but I rarely follow their guidelines and put my own copy in to suit my needs. They are also inexpensive and ship fairly quickly.

Party City and Hallmark Gold Crown Stores both do fairly inexpensive invitations. there are also places online that will e-mail you a proof, and send everything to you. Chelseapaper.com, thestationerystudio.com, . . .

Needle in a Haystack on Preson Road, just south of Lovers Lane, on the west side of the road. Great shop -- floor to ceiling inviations. You can print yourself or they can do it for you.

Hallmark stores have cards that they can print anything on.

I would love to help you!

Take care!

I always order them online. I wish I could remember all the websites (announcingit.com)...Just search "kid's or children's birthday invitations" They have every theme imaginable! Last year I had the most adorable invitation for my daughter's 2nd b-day with her picture on it. I've also ordered them through e-bay. I hope this helps!

you can do them online

just had some notecards made that came out famously

There are tons of great websites that you can order custom invites from. Saves time & really easy. One of my favorite sites is TinyPrints.com. I've ordered birth & baptism announcements and also 1st bday party invitations from them. Just google "birthday invitations" and you'll get lots of resources.

I was at Party City (one on Central and Parker) recently and they have some invitations that they can print. You might check the other Party City locations, as they might have them too. Good Luck!

You might check with a lady that I have done some work for. The Write Invite. Their contact info is ____@____.com or ###-###-####. I'm not sure if she will be exactly what you are looking for, but they do good work if they are.

My sister Bekah, can hand stamp and create invitations for your party. They are cute, precious, and distinctive. You can find her at www.CardsByAuntB.com.

Thanks,

Try Hallmark. You could also do them on the computer with card type paper from Wal-mart.

There are a lot of folks on eBay who do personalized invitations. I had some done for my son's birthday party this year and they turned out great!

I've used 2 Fresh Design for several things and they're great! Contact them at http://www.2freshdesign.com/

East Dallas Printing on Garland Road in Dallas does custom invitations. They did my daughter's first birthday party invitations and I got lots of compliments.

I think the Party Place in Preston Center (the group of shops generally at Preston and Northwest Hwy) does this. The shop itself is on the street parallel to Preston around the corner from Starbucks (I don't remember the street's name). Not real close to Garland, but closer than Oak Cliff.

Hi N.--

I do many custom invitations, cards, save-the-date cards, etc. using photographs. Let me know if you are interested and we can chat!

Good luck to you!

Hi Nohemi,
I usually do the invitations myself. I put them in a 4X6 format and have them printed like pictures in Walgreens. If you have any questions about it or how I do it email me privately. I can email you some invitations I have done.
