I’m so excited to share Princess’s Frozen birthday party this week with you guys! I hope you enjoy seeing it as much as I enjoyed planning it! I love planning birthday parties for my kids, they are so much FUN!
Frozen was an easy theme for Princess to choose this year. The hard part was narrowing down all the options! So the first part, Invitations, they are the first view guests get of the theme, of what to expect from the party. I love doing hand made, creative, invitations!
I decided to create Snow Globes for the invitations! The information on the back and the front something from the movie. I created layers of blue snowflakes (dark to light) in photoshop then I created silhouettes of Anna and Elsa and laid them over the top!
I printed both sides onto card stock (invitation and image) then cut out the circles. You can use a Silhouette, Cricut or simply hand cut them, they are super simple. (I have all the printable’s from the party available for free here in this post)
Then I bought some thick plastic sheeting and cut out matching circles, one for each invitation.
For the “snow” I wanted mini styrofoam balls, but I didn’t want to buy a 50 lbs bag, so instead I bought a travel pillow and cut it open! It created a HUGE mess, they stick to everything… ANYWAY, I poured a little bit into each invitation, topped with a plastic circle then used my sewing machine to sew around the circle!
Then I glued brown curves to the front and back of each invitation to look like the base of a snow globe! I love love LOVE how they turned out!!! They went through the mail just fine too! Always a plus!

These are adorable!!!! I am trying to print the back side but it say the file is broken. how can I create the wording in a circular shape on a word document? Thank you
Ashlee
