Hosting tip
Decade parties live or die on the playlist. If you're taking requests, say so on the card, and give a costume hint guests can manage from their own closets: poodle skirts, rolled jeans, fringe, flowers.
How it works

Details, wording, colors, download

Open any design above in the maker. Type the hosts' names, the date and the place; the badge or the back carries the costume hint, such as Dress: 1920s Glam or Platforms and sequins encouraged.

Pick one of the three palettes drawn for the design, then download a 5 x 7 PDF (front and back), a two-per-sheet letter PDF for home printing, print-shop PNGs with bleed, 4 x 6 PNGs for a photo counter, a phone-sized PNG to text or email, or a Word file. For more lines to put on the card, see the party invitation wording ideas and the party etiquette guide.
