Why parents love it
- Gingerbread men, not another candy house. Most gingerbread invites in this theme are built around a house for a decorating party. This one is all about the cookies, eight little characters dressed for winter, which suits a birthday far better.
- Soft enough for a baby, festive enough for December. The cream background and brown lettering keep it calm, while the pink scarves, bows and hats make each pink watercolor gingerbread man feel made for a girl first birthday.
Perfect for
- December birthday at home. A Christmas 1st birthday girl party with family, cookies on the table and the tree lit behind the high chair.
- Gingerbread party after the holidays. Change "First" to her new age for a January winter birthday with the same cozy look.
- Christmas cookie party. Type your party name in place of the birthday line and send it as a cookie party invite for an afternoon of baking with friends.
- Holiday birthday with grandparents. A small holiday birthday at grandma's house, where the printed card doubles as a keepsake for the baby book.
- Daycare treat day. Send it as a holiday party invite to the other parents when her birthday lands right before winter break.
✦ good to know
Tiny questions.
Easy answers.
The little things parents ask right before hitting buy. Still stuck? We’re one Etsy message away.
Ask on Etsy ↗Can I use this gingerbread invite for a 2nd or 5th birthday?
Yes. The sample reads First Birthday, but the age sits in the same editable text line as the name, so you can type the age you're celebrating. The watercolor gingerbread cookies suit a toddler or a big sister just as well as a baby.
Can I add "oh what fun" wording for an oh what fun party?
Yes. The "Please join us for" line at the top is editable text, so you can change it to "Oh what fun" in Canva. The artwork itself doesn't include that phrase, so if you want an oh what fun invite, type it in before you send.
Can I change the gingerbread birthday invitation colors to match my party?
Every text color and font is editable in Canva. You can pull the pink from the bows and earmuffs into the name for a pink gingerbread look. Or switch the brown lettering to red or green for a more Christmas cookie party feel.
