Dogear Press Projects: Invitations for a Train-Inspired Second Birthday Party

A few weeks ago we celebrated my nephew Bryan’s second birthday. Given Bryan’s love of trains, my sister-in-law Jess planned a fun train-inspired birthday party for her little man (you can see photos of the festivities over at The Eagle’s Nest).

I was excited when Jess asked if I would design an invitation for the birthday party, and thought I’d share some of the design process here. Below is the invitation that Jess and her husband Scott ultimately decided on.


You can see the first three options that I sent to Jess after the jump.


She liked different elements of the first and third invitation options, and asked for something that had a more ticket-like feel, which is how we ended up with the “winning” design. The invitation below is another option that I sent her.


Do you have a favorite? My husband was a fan of the second invitation from Round #1.
