Dora Birthday Invite Instructions

Here is the invitation I made for Cailey's Dora birthday.  Once again I did get the idea from pinterest.  I am adding it because I think that with Ben's help (he is the computer savy one in the family) we improved the one we found online.  We made a template that you can use to make your own.  I highly recommend using the template.  Ben found the font used on the show, Flora Dora.  It turned out really cute.  Yes he really is that awesome :)
Here are the directions

1. Click here to get to the Dora backpack template
2. Click on the "highlight existing fields" button in the upper righthand corner in adobe reader.
3. Type in your own information
4. Print it off on pretty purple paper.  (I just took it to kinkos it only took a few minutes)
5. Cut out the face and glue it to the front of the invite.
1. Red for mouth
2. White for eyes
3. Black for pupils
4. Yellow for Eyebrows
6. Outline the eyes and mouth in black
7. To make the white in the pupils a perfect circle use two holes from your hole punch
8. Fold the top first, I did just under an inch from the top
9. Then bring the bottom up and fold it so that it will not lay flat, giving the invite the look of a backpack.  For me it was around 5 inches from the top of the backpack.
10. Cut two 4 x 0.5 inch strips for the backpack straps.
11. Glue them to the back of the pack 

This is what the back of the invite looks like
