1920s Beach Party Invitations

Roaring Twenties - A Day at the Beach Party 
​

5" x 7" invitation features a vintage 1920's sepia image of people hanging out together at the beach dressed in stylish (for their time) roaring twenties bathing suits.

The parchment-look background has a dark brown border. The back is tan parchment with a dark brown border and houses all of your personalized party details.

A Day at the Beach Card

1920's theme parties are all the rage right now.  They're the PERFECT theme for a party honoring someone who's about to turn thirty-years-old but it can be used successfully for a fun party for someone turning twenty-nine (again) or virtually any age.  

We love this retro design because it uses a real vintage photo of a group of friends wearing their 1920's swimsuits and has the words, Hanging out with a few friends.  Please join us.

It's shown as a birthday party invitation but it can be easily customized for any occasion with a beach, nautical, or summer theme.

Lighthouse Beach Shells Wedding Invitation
Today, while I was browsing through my favorite topic at Zazzle, #thebeach, I came upon a stunning wedding invite that I couldn't wait to share with you.

These elegant Lighthouse Ocean Beach Shells wedding invitations were created using the hand painted watercolor artwork of artist and Zazzle shopkeeper, Audrey Jeanne Roberts.

Roberts created the beautiful illustrations with a faux gray driftwood background.  She's included a pretty lighthouse, Nautilus and Conch shells as well as several starfish and swirl flourishes in the corners.

​The design is available with, or without and qua and white border.
