Welcome To My Parlor Said the Spider to the FlyMaking your own invitations should be a breeze with a few spider graphics and a greeting card software program. You can also do this super simple invitation by hand. To make the invitation shown above:Cut an 8 1/2" x 11" piece of black cardstock into quarters (this gives you four invitations).

Include the details of the party, such as host/hostess name, address of where the party is being held, the date of the party, the time, and a phone number where they can reach you to let you know whether they are coming or not.
