Uh… yeah… OK… when I first heard the term Ninjago, I think I responded with a, “God bless you.” I am familiar with Legos, of course, I mean who isn’t? But I had never heard of Ninjago Legos until one of my best friend’s sons showed me what seemed to be 8 million tiny Ninjago Lego men all in a row. Needless to say, with his 7th birthday just around the corner, he needed his Auntie D to make him some DIY Ninjago Birthday Invitations.
I heart Google Images. I use it almost every time I help with a character themed birthday party. I’ve used it for and Elmo meets Little Einsteins party, Paul Frank themed party, Mickey Mouse themed party, and an Owl themed first birthday, to name a few. I picked two images for these invites and used a free photo editor to add the party information. For the front of the invitation I used a picture of the Master Sensei character and added “ Sensei says, “Master Aidan is turning seven.” I printed them out on fine art paper
and cut them out. For the bottom I used the green Lego Ninja mask (Aidan’s favorite).
I cut out red scrapbook paper
as well to use as a border.
I used the layered the two pieces, punched a hole in the left upper corner and added a charm to attach the two pieces. The charms I found in the sales bin of a craft store, 6 for $2.00!
Here are some after photos.
These were a hit with all the moms. I didn’t have to worry about envelopes, because Aidan simply handed them out at school.
In case you missed them, here are some more budget friendly DIY party posts!
These are so awesome, Dinah! We love Ninjago here!
Thank you, Tara!
