Invite Opinions

I'm in charge of planning my Godmother's 50th- I got this invite proof from a woman on Etsy. I like it but I still think it needs some editing.

Maybe instead of having her name twice, put in some cute birthday quote?

Or make the colors brigther? Maybe the circles on the bottom in color?

Thoughts? love you.

edited: submitted my changes to her- i'll post her next proof.

Re: Invite Opinions

I don't like the name on there twice for sure. I think a birthday quote (but in a smaller font) would be perfect. Other that that I like it, though I would probably brighten it up a bit!

I wanted to do 'fabulous at 50' but my aunt isnt like that- she isnt girlie or frilly so I'm having trouble. I defintely do think its too dark but too much pzazz is not her.

Can you think of anything besides fabulous at 50?

These Etsy people should really customize it to however I want right? This is her basic template only.

Something like... 'Happy 20th anniversary of your 30th Birthday.'

Re: Invite Opinions

I agree with the above - the name twice is weird and some color would be good. Here's a bday quote...but it might be too long:

“And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.”

If she can do it on 2 lines I think that might look best so that it's not teeny tiny.

ETA: And you can take out the 'in the end' part.
