Obtain a photo of the guest of honor when he or she was a small child... and photocopy and clue to front of card... write in all party info on the inside of card.
Decorations

- Centerpieces of dead dried roses... (just hang your red roses upside down in rubberbanded bunches in a closet for a few days and they turn black and stiff..)
- Put bowls of prunes on tables...
