How to Make Your Own Turtle Party Invitations

Turtle party invitations are fun to make.

Turtles are loved among children and are a popular image for party invitations. Whether for a birthday party or a graduation party, turtle party invitations are simple to make and your guests will appreciate your time and effort. Your invitation will stand out from the rest of the invitations that are made by card companies. Creating turtle invitations may be accomplished by adults, but it's fun for adults and children to make the invitations together.

Things You'll Need

• Laptop or desktop computer
• 8 1/2 by 11 inch paper
• Stickers (Optional)
• Markers (Optional)
• Gel pens (Optional)
• Crayons (Optional)

Instructions

1. Buy 8 1/2 by 11 inch paper in white or another color. Buy envelopes to match. Visit a party supply store for a large selection of plain paper and envelopes.

2. Open a document in Microsoft Word. Set the font to a large setting, such as 24. Choose your font type. Set your position to center. Begin your invitation with words such as "You're Invited to Jason's Party!"

3. Under the title, include the location, date, time, and specifics of what the party will entail. For example, if it is a swim birthday party, indicate that guests should bring their bathing suits and towels.

4. Frame each 8 1/2 by 11 inch paper with turtle stickers. If you are creatively inclined, draw turtles around the paper and then make enough copies for the number of guests. Color the turtles you have created with markers, crayons or gel pens. Children can help with creating the turtles.
