Title your invitation with a clever phrase or catchy saying. Typically the title is used to explain the reason behind hosting a sleepover, whether it's a birthday party, New Year's or for the sake of just getting together. Think of the invitation title as a newspaper headline that is used to set the tone for the rest of the invitation.
Add all the necessary basic details such as who, what, when and where. The 'who' is the name of the child hosting the sleepover party. The 'what' outlines what kind of sleepover party it will be or if the party is themed. The 'when' outlines when the sleepover begins and also what time the children need to be picked up in the morning. The 'where' is the address and perhaps detailed directions for those unfamiliar with the area.
Advise the children as to what they need to bring to the sleepover party. Write this after all the basic details. For example, do the children need to bring their own sleeping bag and pillow? How about flashlights if it's an outdoor sleepover? Do they need to bring gifts or games? This allows the guests to properly prepare for a night away.
Outline briefly what kinds of activities and food the guests will enjoy at the sleepover party. This gives them some idea as to what other optional items they may need to bring. It also gives kids a chance to let the host know if they have any allergies to specific foods. If the sleepover party is a theme party, the activities will be coordinated in correspondence to that theme.
Include an RSVP date at the end of the invitation as well as the contact name and phone number.

How to Make a Webcomic WebsiteIn Feburary 2016 03,
In Feburary 2016 03,
Webcomics can be solo efforts or exercises in teamwork. For example, Penny Arcade is a partnership between writer Jerry Holkins and artist Mike Krahulik, while VG Cats is created entirely by Scott Ramsoomair. If you have the skill to handle both writing and illustration, you can launch a solo comic. However, having a fellow artist involved gives you time to focus on a single aspect of the comic, while your partner handles the rest -- effectively reducing a stressful workload. These aren't the only useful elements to a webcomic team, however. As Cat-Nine author Kevin Dangoy points out, having a 'Web guy' who knows how to build and maintain the site itself can be vital. Take on the roles you can handle but don't be afraid to branch out to willing collaborators.
Developing Your Comic
After you have a creative team in place or decide to go it alone, it's time to begin development. Work out what you want your comic to be about, who the primary characters are, what kind of narrative structure you want to use and all your character designs. Get a solid bead on just what your comic is and how it looks -- a slapped-together comic is less likely to succeed than one that is well planned. You'll need to master image-editing software like Adobe Photoshop or GIMP.
Finding Web Hosting
After you have your ideas all worked out and a few strips ready for the launch, find somewhere to host your comic. You can use a free blogging site like Blogger to start or one of the free Web hosting services. Take a close look at the free Web hosting services tailored specifically to webcomics, including Comic Genesis, The Duck, Smack Jeeves and Comic Fury. Free Web hosting has limitations; you may need to shop around to find one that suits your needs best. Premium hosting and domain services maximize performance and options; you can start with one of these services or switch when your comic grows in popularity.
Building the Site
Building the site itself requires some skill with HTML and CSS, even with free Web hosting. You or your Web expert will need to carefully tailor the site to work around advertisements and function smoothly while still making your comic easy to read and access. Depending on the desired complexity, the skill level required can be basic or advanced. You'll also need an FTP program so you can transfer the comics themselves to your website's server.
Helpful Tips
Artist Julie Miyamoto suggests that you create a backlog of comics and space out the release dates. By releasing your backlog incrementally over time, you have time to work on another batch or take a break. She also suggests that you avoid filler whenever possible, as fillers detract from overall plot progress. She suggests that you keep concepts broad enough to appeal to a wide audience without alienating your primary readers. Bill Watterson's 'Calvin and Hobbes' serves as a good example; many of the strips require almost no reading.
