How do I Make Party Pups Invitations for a Child's Birthday?
Children who love dogs will adore having a party pup birthday party. Handmade party pup invitations are easy to make and you can involve your child--and even the dog--in the project. Send out your invitations three to four weeks ahead of time, to give time for parents to RSVP and to increase your attendance numbers. Does this Spark an idea?

Take a picture of your own dog with a digital camera. Place a birthday hat on its head or tie a ribbon loosely around its neck for the pose. Print off the picture onto photo paper. If you do not own a dog, download pictures of a cute puppy from online or look through old magazines and calendars for pictures.

Draw bones or paw prints on construction paper. Cut them out and paste them on the inside of the card, leaving room to write down the party information. Alternatively, get your child to make paw prints with finger paint.

Write all vital information, including the date, time, address and add an RSVP. Make sure to add that the celebration will be a "party pups" theme for your child's birthday. Try to come up with a clever pun or expression, such as "Come to Abigail's birthday pawty," "Ready for a dog-gone good time?" or "We're hounding you to come!"
