BORN TO BE WILD

Uncle Mike is 50!
Shhhh its a surprise!!!

I designed this surprise birthday party invitation for my aunt.
My uncles favorite colors are black and orange and he loves his harley :)
so it was an obvious choice what his
50th birthday party theme was going to be!


Enjoy!



Snazzy labels created for ivory envelopes,
I'm loving the white ivory contrast these days!



on the back of the envelope i hand drew flames
and colored them with orange and yellow markers,
adding a "biker" look, the back of the invite also
bears my logo, i know, i know... lame self promotion :)




this photo is of my cousins on their dad's harley HOW CUTE!!!
my aunt has some pics of them on their wedding day on the harley
but it seemed neat to show the kids... :)
I loved adding the small flourish detail mixing ornate and rugged,
mostly because i wanted an element other than flames!

Hope you enjoyed these!
I really enjoy doing party themes and invitations
they are fun because they are simple
yet have allot of small details that make them special.
