Lots of great ideas and free resources for making a DIY 70th Birthday Invitation for the Amazing person about to celebrate this milestone event. birthday.
A very special celebration is required for the person who reaches their 70th birthday. How do you even start to make an invitation that is worthy of the birthday guest of honor. Let's brainstorm.
70th birthday invitation ideas
- Photo collage - I think the number one idea for an invitation would have to be a photo collage invitation of the birthday boy or girl. Use 6 or so photos ranging in age from a little baby to the present day along with the party information.
- Dual Photos
Another spin on using photographs is to make a photo invitation with 2 photos. One photo is of the guest of honour as a child or baby and another photo of them now. The heading can read something like 'from then until now' Or 'Now and then'
- Poetry
A nice poem or verse is a sweet addition too. There are a couple below.
-
Invitation patterns
A traditional design would work best for this kind of invite. An elegant invitation made with clipart like a damask or baroque design for the background or a scroll or swirl design would suit. -
Make a printable invitation in Word, excel or with graphic or photo editing software.
-
Do they have a special hobby that you can incorporate into a fun informal invitation - maybe golf, crafting etc.

Pocket invitations are lovely. They can be a bit of work but if you get the grandkids together you will have them made in no time at all.

70th Poems and Verses
A Poem that we wrote for a Surprise 70th birthday celebration.
Surprise Birthday Poem
Jenny's birthday is nearly here
It's a very special date
Friends and family far and near
come and help us celebrate
She's turning 70, we're throwing a party

And when she walks through the door
Such joy we'll see shining in her eyes+
Beverly Hillbillies Poem
Since anybody who has reached the age of 70 will have watched the Beverly Hillbilles as some stage in their life. I thought that the theme song would make a good tune to write an invitation poem to.
Now let me tell you a story about a man named John
He's reached the age of 70 and he's still going strong
He's grown to be a fine some one to idolize.
So we're throwing him a party. It's going to be a surprise
PS words that rhyme with surprise - buys cries dies dries dyes eyes flies fries guys highs idolize lies pies prize rise size shies sighs skies spies thighs ties tries wise

70th Birthday Invite examples
I made this invitation for my grandma's 70th birthday party. We planned a big celebration and I wanted everything to be special. Being a child of the internet era I googled lots of different invitation companies but I couldn't find a design good enough for my grandma. So I decided to make my own.
While searching the internet I found this website (make-your-own-invitations.com) and it had a lot of good ideas. My choices were between a pocket invitation design and a photo invite. I decided to make an invitation that I could print onto photo paper with the photo invitation tutorial since I had the Photoshop Elements software which came bundled with my laptop. I didn't even know that you could use it to make invitations!. Being very new to making invitations I emailed Peata and she helped me with my design and created some special clip art that I could use.
I found the poem that i used while searching for ideas on the internet. It's a really beautiful poem and I thought
When Sue was just a baby
everybody use to say
Wouldn't it be wonderful
if she could stay this way
But even though she's all grown up
and this her 70th year
She's still more sweet and lovable
than anyone so dear.
So join us at a party
your attendance would be great
To have a share of Susan's cake
and help us celebrate!
