Garbage Truck Party Invitation

This is the second invitation we used for my son’s truck and car birthday party. Using both this design and the dump truck allowed me to be more creative since I was making so many! You’ll see the design for the dump one in another post. To have a unique feature, we attached blinking lights to the front of the garbage and dump trucks for the headlights. You can’t mail the invitations with the lights shown so you’ll need to hand them out or mail in a small box.

Wording for this invitation was as follows:
Cars & Trucks….Trucks & Cars
Harris’ New Road Leads to
A Birthday Playdate
’cause He’s Two!

Destination: Harris’ Home
Date and Time

To make the trucks, use yellow, blue and black heavy scrap booking paper. After cutting the truck out, the window and shadow are glued on. Cut a small hole in the center of the wheels and then in the body of the truck. I used a small hole punch for this. Attach the wheels with small scrap booking brads. If you want to add the light, start with a small hole and make it bigger as needed. Turn on the light right before delivering the invitation.

Resources: Scrap Booking Paper and brads can be found at any craft or hobby store or where scrap booking supplies are sold. Blinking lights are found in the bridal area of Michaels. They come in a pack of two. Garbage Truck Party Invitation Template.
