Sail on over two-by-two, for a Noah's Ark Birthday party.
It's sure to be a splash, so let's work on creating a fabulous bash! To start creating a memorable 1st birthday, here's some ideas for Noahs Ark themed invitations.
STUFFED ANIMAL INVITES - Select small stuffed or beanie-type animals to attach your invites to.
Cut 8 1/2" x 11" cardstock into four pieces.
Then type or handwrite your party details in calligraphy on decorative scrapbook paper.
Cut the finished piece using decorative scissors to be about 3" x 4 1/2".
Then glue it to the back of the card stock.
Decorate the corners with some Noah's Ark stickers.
Hole-punch the invite, run curling ribbon through, tie it around the neck of the stuffed animal, and hand-deliver your animal invites.
NOAH'S ARK-SHAPED INVITES - Cut an ark shape from a piece of brown card stock.
Download various Noah's Ark animals or use die-cut elephants, giraffes, monkeys, lions, lambs, etc.
and place them into the ark.
Write on the ark, "Beat The Flood & Join Me For My 1st Birthday Party!" On the reverse side, provide your party details.
NOAH'S ARK INVITES - Cut an 8 1/2" x 11" piece of card stock into two pieces and fold them in half.
Then download some Noah's Ark animals or use die-cut elephants, giraffes, monkeys, lions, lambs, etc.
and glue them to the front of the card stock.
On the left side either type or handwrite in calligraphy: We're flooded with excitement and fun As (Baby's Name) is turning one! The animals came 2 by 2, Now we want to party with you! On the right side, type or handwrite your party details on a piece of decorative scrapbook paper.

If necessary, fold down the elephant ears to make your invite fit.
NOAH'S ARK PHOTO INVITES - Cut an 8 1/2" x 11" card stock into two pieces and fold them in half.
using decorative scissors, trim the edges of a photo of your baby dressed in an animal costume, so it is slightly smaller than the card stock.
Glue the photo to the front of the invitation.
Put "Join Me For A Cruise On Noah's Ark" above the photo.
On a piece of textured white paper (finished size 4 1/2" x 7 1/2"), either type or handwrite in calligraphy all of your party details and then decorate the edges with Noah's Ark stickers.
EMBELLISH READY-MADE NOAH'S ARK INVITES - Buy ready-made Noah's Ark invitations and embellish the picture with various colors of glitter to match the animals.
Glue tiny Google eyes onto some of the animals, a ribbon around the neck of an animal, or perhaps a tiny silk flower near the ear of an animal.
