DIY Oscar Party Part I
February 25th, 2010
★ Update! A 2012 version of Oscar printables (including an invitation and ballot) is now available. Check out the full post here!
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
I love movies and with the Academy Awards coming up I thought it would be fun to make an DIY Oscar party. Here’s everything you need to throw your own! From invitations and ballots to popcorn and treat bags, just print, cut and enjoy!
Invitations Download
Print onto 8.5×11″ card stock, trim to size then use a 3/4″ hole punch to notch the corners.
Envelope Liners Download
Print onto 8.5×11″ paper, trim to size and afix with glue stick to the inside of an A7 envelope.
Popcorn Bags Download
Print directly onto white 5×7″ bags, available in my Etsy shop. If you don’t have an Ink Jet or if your printer doesn’t allow you to print odd formats, you could always print the label onto sticker paper (found at office supply stores) and post apply it to the bag.
Check back tomorrow for the ballots, candy bags and one other surprise!

Erin, to die cut the edges use a 3/4″ hole punch to notch the corners or carefully cut out with a craft knife.

I just stumbled onto your site (literally and figuratively) and really like your sense of style.
The designs are great but I’m also impressed with the photography. Do you take your own photos?
