Marlin's Funky Fresh Boombox Invitations!

I am so pumped to finally get the chance to post about these invitations! They are the ultimate party starter for my Soror Marlin's 40th birthday that she will be celebrating next month. She is having a "Back In The Day" party with a 1980's flair. Guests will be reminded of Run DMC, atari, jheri curls, starter jackets and shell toe adidas.

The theme is introduced by a headphone and music note graphic on the back of the envelope flap:

It is then opened to reveal a spray painted brick wall with Marlins birthday tag on it:

The main piece of the invitation is the die cut boombox radio with intricate details. Did you notice the name of the tape in the cassette is "Marlin's 40th Birthday Celebration: Old School Jams"!

The last piece of this incredible design is the "tape cassette" insert card that contains the party details. I love how it is "clear" just like a real tape! Again I must point out that it has the same title "Marlin's 40th Birthday Celebration: Old School Jams" like the tape that is in the radio.

It should be a crime to have this much fun designing and producing an invitation like this. I look forward to the out-of-the-box designs that 2010 will bring. Who wants a plain ol' panel invitation anymore? Now, off to find an outfit to wear to the party. Where are my high top fila's and tennis skirt when I need them!
