Christmas Pajama Party Invitation Set in 3 Colorways with RSVP, Party Schedule and Thank You Cards

A folded set of plaid pajamas hangs down the left side of this Christmas pajama party invitation, and the bottom of the card is a pile of cozy things: fuzzy slippers with little stitched trees, a chunky knit blanket, old books, a gingerbread man and two mugs of cocoa with candy canes. A lit tree and a lantern fill the right edge, and a ribbon bow with a heart tag and a paper label hangs across the top.

The sample text sets the tone: “Wear your favorite PJs for a night of hot cocoa, sweet treats & holiday movies.” The back card keeps going with “Get cozy” and four short lines about pajamas, a mug of cocoa and a blanket. The reply card has two boxes, “Yes, save me a mug!” and “Sorry, I cannot make it.”

Three colorways, one picture

All three styles use the same illustration and the same layouts, recolored.

• Classic is red-and-green tartan pajamas with a red and a white holly mug.
• Pink turns the pajamas and blanket into soft pink check, with pink mugs and a blush background on the landscape card.
• Heritage uses dark green-and-navy tartan, deep green mugs, cream slippers with green bows and a green-striped blanket.

Pick one for the whole party. The files are named by colorway, so the three sets stay apart.

The offline editor

Edit_Invitations.html opens in a desktop browser without an account. Nine detail boxes sit at the top: host, date, time, location, RSVP contact, reply-by date and the three schedule times. Type them once and they fill in on every layout that uses them, in all three colorways. Below that, each layout lists its own wording lines, including the big “Christmas” script and the “Pajama Party” title, so you can rename the party or rewrite the schedule items. Long lines shrink to fit.

The editor keeps your changes in the browser, and “Save project file” downloads a backup with your photo inside it. For output, pick SVG, a JPG (1500 x 2100 px for a 5 x 7 card, 1080 x 1920 for the phone version) or a PDF. The PDF can be laid out on Letter or A4 with bleed and crop marks, or at the card’s own trim size, which is the one to use for the phone layout.

The illustration is a fixed background in both the editor and Canva, so the pajamas and mugs stay where they are. They sit close to the last lines on the front and on the schedule, so keep the email address and the final schedule item short.

Printing and folding

Portrait cards, backs, RSVP cards and schedules print two to a sheet; landscape cards, thank-you cards and liners print one to a sheet. The landscape front has no matching back, so print it single-sided. The thank-you card is 8.5 x 5.5 inches open and folds in half to 4.25 x 5.5, with the outside and inside on separate pages for the two sides of the sheet. Run one sheet on plain paper first and check that the two sides line up.

The liner is shaped like an envelope with a pointed flap. Cut along its gold outline, fold where the point meets the rectangle, then hold it inside your own envelope to check the fit, since flap shapes differ.

Questions

Is this for a kids' sleepover?

The sample wording plans an evening, not an overnight stay - cocoa at 6:30 and a holiday movie at 7:00, hosted by "The Miller Family". The artwork has no age cues, and every line can be rewritten, sleepover plans included.

Can I add a photo?

Yes, on the four photo layouts. A small rounded window sits under the "Pajama Party" title on the portrait card and on the right half of the landscape card. Upload one picture in the editor and it fills every photo layout, or swap the placeholder in Canva.
