Thanksgiving invitations

This year my husband and I are hosting Thanksgiving at our place. We are so excited because its going to be the very first time we have a holiday celebration with our family and of course it is the first official gathering at our new apartment. We have a lot of planning to do.

First thing on my list is invitations: here you have plenty of options. 

You can send invitations online using great themes from your e-mail browser. 

You can also use iPhone/iPad to create something nice or use some apps that have seasonal designs 

(check out Red Stamp, this app is free, they do charge $0.99 for some of theirs postcards, but most of their basic designs are free; this app is very easy and fun to use and you can customize your invitation postcard and send it in no time)

I decided to send paper invitations via the post. I used pale yellow card stock (4" : 5.5") with wording sample #1 (see below) and a little sketched turkey :) Font: Felix Titling. I used brown envelopes and gold pen to write the address.

Wording samples that I liked:

Thanksgiving should be shared

with family and friends,

reasons to give thanks.

Please join us for dinner

and make our holiday special.
