I am having a party for my DS in Feb, I would like to start making the invites now, but am lacking inspiration.
As I missed my birthday when I had him, it will also be a party for me, so the theme is the princess and the frog.
I have bought some little stickers (about 3cm max) of the frog prince.

Other than that I have no idea of layout, style anything really.
Can anyone help with a sketch or something that might get me started?
