Free Enchanted Garden Summer Party Invitations

Click on the free printable summer party invitation template to see it full size and download it.

free summer party invitations
This free summer party invitation template is called "Enchanted Garden," because the setting it depicts felt pretty darn enchanting to me. The soft purple, blue and green tones convey the feeling of a lazy and slightly magical summer afternoon in a garden, which makes it the perfect way to invite guests to your next summer birthday, anniversary, retirement or just-because party. But you don't have to use it only in the summer; this invitation design would work year-round.

The illustrations and background for this design came from the very talented Karen Kleiman of KaKlei Designs. Her work has a dreamy quality that I love, so I'll definitely be creating more invitations that incorporate her designs.

Free Unique Fall Wedding Invitations

Click on the free printable fall wedding invitation template to see it full size and download it.

This unique fall wedding invitation template features subtle shades of pumpkin and sage, and stylized autumn leaves and vines, which makes it perfect for an autumn wedding or commitment ceremony. I love these particular shades of orange and green, because they're so contemporary and elegant looking, and they convey a fall theme without being garish or too obvious.

This wedding or commitment ceremony invitation design would look nice with a thin ribbon covering the line between the orange and green, tied in a pretty bow. Ivory or cream would look nice for the ribbon, but you could also be a little bolder and use a color, such as avocado, persimmon or crimson.

The line illustrations used in this autumn wedding invitation come from the very talented Jennifer Furlotte of Pixels and Ice Cream. Thanks, Jennifer!

Free Halloween Party Invitations

Click on the free printable Halloween party invitation template to see it full size and download it.

This free Halloween party invitation template features a haunted house, a ghost, a full moon, and a friendly witch and her boiling cauldron, all surrounded by a field of stars in a black night sky. It's perfect for a kids Halloween party or for adults who are still young at heart.

This invitation design features adorable images from Scrappin Doodles. (All graphics © Scrappin Doodles, except for the star background, which is from Cheryl Seslar Designs.) This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get a free  invitation with Scrappin Doodles images (at least from me), because they allow very limited freebies to be made with their images. But I wanted to post this to give you an idea of what's to come, because I will soon be launching a site that features a variety of printable party kits, and Scrappin Doodles and Cheryl Seslar will be two of the featured artists. I'm not going to post the URL yet, because the site isn't ready. Suffice it to say, though, it will be cool. The site will offer invitations in template form that are ready to print. So you won't have to worry about pasting the images into a Word document or other software  program any more. There will also be matching party printables, such as thank you cards, costume contest certificates and other fun things that will make party-throwing more fun and creative. All of these will be downloadable in one easy-to-use kit with full instructions.

In the meantime, if you'd like the instructions for making this invitation, please visit my free Halloween party invitations hub by clicking the previous link or the yellow button below. There are also some other fun things on that page, including videos that will teach you how to make super-simple but impressive Halloween pumpkin decorations out of cloth.

Free Boys Rocket Ship Birthday Party Invitations

Click on the free printable boys rocket ship birthday party invitation template to see it full size and download

This free boys birthday party invitation template features a black and white polka dot border and the purple B-Day1 rocket ship, flying through a beautiful blue sky. (Although I'm officially calling it a boys invitation, there's absolutely no reason why it couldn't be used for a girl's birthday party instead!)  The welcoming message invites your child's guests with the words "You're Invited. We're going to have a blast!"

This invitation design made use of the Jamie Dell Scraps Boys Will Be Boys kit. As always, I thank her for allowing me to use her images in my designs. Speaking of boys who are definitely boys, the inspiration for this design was my nephew Spencer, who loves anything having to do with outer space. In fact, he actually writes about space and draws pictures to match for books that his mom binds for him. He's quite talented for a six-year-old, as you'll see in this hilarious card he gave his Uncle Dave and I for Valentine's Day, which has a novel, space-themed way of describing that I'm 5' tall and his uncle is 6'1":

You can't argue with that logic. :-)

I'm currently designing a line of boys birthday party invitations, which I'll post on a HubPages hub. Until then, if you'd like to see more invitations for boys or read instructions for printing this invitation, visit my pirate party invitations or sports invitations hubs. (The yellow button below will take you to my pirate invitations hub.)

Father's Day Songs


Daddy's Hands

"I remember Daddy's hands
Folded silently in prayer
And reaching out to hold me
When I had a nightmare
You could read quite a story
In the callouses and lines
Years of work and worry
Had left their mark behind

I remember Daddy's hands
How they held my Mama tight
And patted my back
For something done right
There are things I've forgotten
That I loved about the man
But I'll always remember
The love in Daddy's hands

Daddy's hands
Were soft and kind when I was cryin'
Daddy's hands
Were hard as steel when I'd done wrong
Daddy's hands
Weren't always gentle but I'd come to understand
There was always love in Daddy's hands

I remember Daddy's hands
Working til they bled
Sacrificed unselfishly
Just to keep us all fed
If I could do things over
I'd live my life again
And never take for granted
The love in Daddy's hands

Daddy's hands
Were soft and kind when I was cryin'
Daddy's hands
Were hard as steel when I'd done wrong
Daddy's hands
Weren't always gentle but I'd come to understand
There was always love in Daddy's hands

Daddy's hands
Were soft and kind when I was cryin'
Daddy's hands
Were hard as steel when I'd done wrong
Daddy's hands
Weren't always gentle but I'd come to understand
There was always love ............ in Daddy's hands"



My Father

My father always promised us
That we would live in France
We'd go boating on the Seine
And I would learn to dance

We lived in Ohio then
He worked in the mines
On his dreams like boats
We knew we would sail in time

All my sisters soon were gone
To Denver and Cheyenne
Marrying their grownup dreams
The lilacs and the man

I stayed behind the youngest still
Only danced alone
The colors of my father's dreams
Faded without a sound

And I live in Paris now
My children dance and dream
Hearing the ways of a miner's life
In words they've never seen

I sail my memories of home
Like boats across the Seine
And watch the Paris sun
As it sets in my father's eyes again

My father always promised us
That we would live in France
We'd go boating on the Seine
And I would learn to dance

I sail my memories of home
Like boats across the Seine
And watch the Paris sun
As it sets in my father's eyes again"

Dear Dad,

Dear Son,

B. One evening a little girl and her parents were sitting around the table eating supper. The little girl said, "Daddy, you're the boss, aren't you?" Her Daddy smiled, pleased, and said yes. The little girl continued "That's because Mummy put you in charge, right?"


C. Today nearly 100 years have elapsed since the first father's Day was celebrated. Fathers of 1900 didn't have it nearly as good as fathers of today; but they did have a few advantages: In 1900, fathers prayed their children would learn English. Today, fathers pray their children will speak English.


D. "Fathers are the geniuses of the house because only a person as intelligent as we could fake such stupidity. Think about your father: He doesn't know where anything is. You ask him to do something, he messes it up and your mother sends you: "Go down and see what your father's doing before he blows up the house." He's a genius at work because he doesn't want to do it, and he knows someone will be coming soon to stop him." -- Bill Cosby


E. It is a wise father that knows his own child. - William Shakespeare


F. A company held a contest for kids with the theme: "The nicest thing My Father Ever Did For Me." One kid answered "He married my mother."


G. Did You Know?

There are more collect calls on Father's Day than any other day of the year.
An estimated $1 billion is spent each year in the United States for Father's Day gifts, but Dad is still paying the bill when it comes to telephone calls from the kids.


H. New and Improved

The little girl was sitting in her father's lap as he read her a goodnight story. From time to time, she would take her eye's off the book and reach up to touch his wrinkled cheek. By and by she was alternately stroking her own cheek, then his again.
Finally she spoke, "daddy, did God make you?"
"Yes, sweetheart" he answered, "God made me a long time ago."
"Oh she said," then "daddy, did God make me too?"
"Yes, indeed honey" he assured her. "God made you just a little while ago."
"Oh" she said. Feeling their respective faces again, she observed, "God's getting better at it now isn't he?"


I. My father is so old that when he was in school, history was called current affairs.


J. Dadisms

"You’re going to sit there until you eat your dinner. I don’t care if you sit there all night."

"Delayed obedience is disobedience. "

"When I say no, I mean no. Why? Because, that’s why."

"If you don’t stop crying, I’ll give you something to cry about."

"Two wrongs do not make a right."

"As long as you tried your hardest, that's all that matters."

"I’m spanking you because I love you. This hurts me a lot more than it hurts you."

"If I didn't hear it, you didn't say it! "

"Shape up or ship out."

"That’s so funny? Wipe that smile off your face."

"We’ll do it the right way. My way."

"Don't ask me, ask your mother."

"This is your last warning. "

"Four things come not back: time past, the spoken word, the sped arrow and a missed opportunity. "

"You'll realize the value of money once you start earning. "

"Son, don't ever get married. And tell that to your kids."

"Enough is enough! "

"Do what I say, not what I do."

"When I was your age.... "
