A Gingerbread House and Gold Ribbon for Christmas Eve
A deep maroon invitation carries a decorated gingerbread house with candy canes, a heart and stars, flanked by two gingerbread men. A golden ribbon curves across the house with YOU’RE INVITED TO A, and peppermint sweets and stars hang below it. Christmas runs in a gold script and EVE CELEBRATION follows in white capitals. A gold box shows 24 DEC, a venue line and 06 PM, and a gold band asks guests to RSVP by December 15th.
Illustration Top, Details Bottom
The card is 5 x 7 inches, portrait. The gingerbread house fills the top half, and the date, venue and time sit together in one gold box below. Guests can see the date, time and place in a single glance at the gold box.
Venue and Time Format
The venue line reads Venue Name Or Address Here, so type your venue. The time shows 06 PM with a leading zero, which reads better as 6 PM. The RSVP band gives a date and phone number, so update both.
Preparing the Christmas Eve Invitation
- Type the venue.
- Change 06 PM to 6 PM.
- Set the RSVP date.
- Set the phone.
- Print or send.
Christmas Eve Traditions
Christmas Eve gatherings often include a meal, carols and opening one present. Mention one tradition in a short line if you have room.
A Party for All Ages
Gingerbread houses and sweets appeal to children, while the gold script keeps the card stylish for adults. That makes it a good choice for family parties with grandparents and little ones.
Getting Maroon Right in Print
Maroon often prints darker than on screen. Make a test print and lighten the background slightly if the gingerbread house loses its detail.
Choosing an RSVP Date in December
December is busy, so give guests a clear reply date about ten days before Christmas Eve. It gives you time to plan food and seating.
Gingerbread Place Cards
Use one of the gingerbread men on place cards for the dinner table. Children love finding their name on a cookie shaped card.
Sending the Christmas Eve Invitations
Send them in early December.
