Hi All,

I had my first party on the 12th and it was a huge success. The invitations I made for my own party were fairly easy. I got 2 bookings from my party and I'm making up the invitations today for one of them (the other one is a book party). It's a quarter-fold card. On the outside is a You're Invited type of thing. On the inside right is the party info (who, what, when, where, etc). On the inside left is where I need the advice!!! On my own invitation I had put a little note about me starting a Tupperware Business and hoping that the people would come to my party to help me get started and test out my demo! So, for this party I need to say a little something different. Here is what I have right now:

Hi,
Come and join the fun and in the process you'll help Amanda stock her kitchen with free Tupperware items! It's a Chocolate Lover's Party! You'll learn some new recipes and get to sample all of the delicious items we make! We're going to have a lot of fun at this party! Hope you will join us!
Your Host for the Party: Amanda (and her last name)
Your Tupperware Consultant: Michelle Hart
***Return the catalog at the party and you'll get a free gift***
***Bring a friend to the party that wasn't already invited you both get a free gift***
***There will also be at least 2 drawings for free tupperware!!!***

Okay....that's what I have. I'm pretty happy with it except for one sentence. I'm just not sure about "...in the process you'll help Amanda stock her kitchen with free Tupperware items!". I'm not sure that sounds good. Any suggestions? Do you like it the way it is? The girl having the party (Amanda) just had a baby 2 months ago (she's 17) and she and her fiancee are living together in a very small trailer (the party is at her mom's house). She basically has nothing in her kitchen! This is why she is having the party! Okay, that's the background! Suggestions welcome!

Hi Michelle,
I like what all you put in your invitation....
if you feel uncomfortable about putting it that way
you might say something like

come join in the fun with Amanda at a Chocolate Lovers Party???

Hi,

I decided to just to stop the sentence at "Come and join the fun!"...left out the part about helping Amanda get "free items". Figure I can say something about that at the party and then tell everyone how they can get free items by having their own party!

Thanks for the suggestion!
Michelle
