Elements of Good Birthday Invitations

There are no limits to birthday card design inspiration. However, every proper invitation needs several main elements to make it work as intended (making sure people come). Here is how you create a proper birthday invitation.

1. Use Two or Three Fonts

Using multiple fonts helps you distinguish different sections of the birthday invitation. For example, the main event name (ex. “Jennifer’s Sweet Seventeen”) might be in a fun doodle font. However, the more crucial parts, like the party venue and time, should be in standard fonts, such as a more legible sans serif.

Two to three fonts are ideal for an invitation design. More than that, you risk making the design look cramped.

2. Personalize the Design

A birthday invitation informs the recipients about a special, highly personal day. Adding a personal element to the invitation will make it more special. You can even create doodle-inspired artwork to add some fun to the visual.

For example, if the birthday person loves cats, add hand-drawn cat doodles. If the person loves romantic movies or books, use a doodle font with heart symbols.

3. Make Distinguished Color Schemes

A birthday card should have a more daring color scheme, especially if you want to compel people to come to the party with an invitation. Don’t be afraid to experiment with contrasting or bold colors. Ask the birthday person about their favorite objects or colors and use them to create the tone for your design.

Ideas for Themed Birthday Invitations

If you want to make doodle (and doodle font) a part of your invitation, you can use these ideas as inspiration for themes.

1. Animals

Animals are classic favorites for birthday-related designs. The easiest way to find inspiration is by asking about the birthday person’s pet or favorite animal. You can use hand-drawn illustrations, paintings, or photographs.

2. Funny Photos

Funny-themed photos can be great personalized ideas for birthday invitations. The client can make funny photos that you combine with unique fonts, special layouts, and their chosen color schemes. 

3. Zodiac

Since zodiacs are more popular than ever now, you can turn them into birthday invitation themes. It is easy to find ideas because you can use the birthday person’s zodiac sign. Make the zodiac sign cute or funny with a doodle illustration and font.
