It’s that time of year again: a time of pumpkin patches, candy corn, costumes, haunted houses, and pumpkin spice lattes. And as we approach this spooky holiday, you may be planning a Halloween party of your own. Planning a party is stressful enough without having to worry about what to do for invitations. Fear not! We've made a list of fun techniques for creating your own spooky invites! Also, remember to check out our Halloween sale, this month only!

Coloring pages: Making cards doesn't have to be a chore! If you have kids, try a print-out coloring card.
This is a fun way for kids to help out and have a great time! And, best of all,
while your kids have fun doing your work for you, you can focus on other
things.
Online design: Are you a Photoshop wizard, a master of
graphic design? Consider creating your own custom invitation in an
image-editing program. Then just print out your invitation and send them to your guests!
Tip: Make sure to print your design onto high-quality thick paper.
Family photo: There’s nothing better (or cuter!) than a photograph of your
kids all dressed up for Halloween. For a personal touch, include your family
photo on your card! If you don’t have a picture from this year, consider
using last year’s Halloween photo.
Shaped
cards: It may be hip to be square, but sometimes it's more fun to use a new shape. Try cutting your invitations into Halloween shapes like pumpkins, ghosts, or bats. Or, if you want something more structured, check out this great tutorial for owl-shaped invitations from Martha Stewart! And if you need supplies, check out our high-quality card stock and once you've finished your spooky owl cards, here are some Halloween-themed envelopes to send them in.
