This year I turn 30. My husband has been reminding me of that since the New Year rang in. I’m not a person that gets hung up on age, but leaving my 20’s does do funny things to my insides… a little. I figure if he is going to razz me for the next 7 months, the most he can do is throw me a big 3-0 bash, right? So I’ve created a Pinterest board where I am storing fun ideas and I’m hoping my Facebook/Pinterest friends will clue him in. I’m dropping sneaky hints. I mean, I can’t plan my own 30th birthday party!
UPDATE: All downloads now available via Google Docs.
I figured I would make it easy for other husbands out there with wives turning 30 too. I’ve created a FREE, customizable 30th Birthday Party Invitation. All you need is Adobe Reader, Cardstock and a printer. This is a two step process if you want to use the same script font as what is already on the invitation (if you don’t care about that, you can skip to downloading the invitation and it will use a default font – most likely Times New Roman). Download Dancing Script OT here. Install the font on your system (if you are using Windows you download the font and then save it to your Fonts folder which is located in your Control Panel). Now that the font is installed, download the invitation from here. Fill in the info and then print out your invitations on cardstock. A custom design for free! Final invite size is 7″ x 5″.
I also designed some cupcake toppers that can be printed onto cardstock and cut with a scrapbook 2″ circle or scallop punch. Download the cupcake toppers here.
Show your guests JUST how refreshing 30 really is with these adorable water bottle labels. Print them out onto 8.5 x 11 sheets of labels and stick to a water bottle.
Now all the party planner needs to do is get some coordinating balloons, streamers and such! All you husbands can thank me for making you look like the hero (birthday girls – make sure you accidentally leave this page up on the computer)!

This is the year I turn 40 — incredibly unbelieveable, so I know how you’re feeling! Each decade keeps getting better and better for me, and it will for you, too! Do not fear your 30s — they are awesome!
Where was this post and Pinterest when I turned 30?! I turn 31 in a few weeks and this would have been perfect to get the hubby together for a 30th bday party.
30 was a great year for me! But, as someone who just turned 50, I have to tell you that each decade gets better and better. Every 10 year milestone makes me feel more empowered! Happy birthday early…enjoy the ride!!!
I’m in the 30 club for 2012! 3 months to go before the big 3-0! So…do I give these to Hubby and expect him to be crafty? I don’t know how that will work…
Hi, thank you so much for sharing and belated happy birthday. I have been following you since 2011 and I love your blog. I am turning 30 this year and your freebies is perfect. Though, I have a little bit of concern about the free printables you have. I tried to download it but it always takes me to this Chinese website and ask me to run the application Publisher:NewITlimited. I am scared to download because of virus possibility, that is why I want to ask you if that Publisher was your? Thank you so much once again and enjoy the rest of the week.
Yeah for this great year! Enjoy your youth while you can! Your husband better have a great party and surprise for you if he is already teasing you about it!
Gruezi!- It does not sound like you are clicking the right download link. When you click the link in my post it brings you to 4Shared. Once there you click the button that says DOWNLOAD NOW – it is located under the image. After that a second page will come up and will count down (because you are using a free version). Once the count down is down you click the DOWNLOAD FILE NOW button.
I am also turning 30 but in April. I was just thinking about what I could do to celebrate in style for this new milestone but am fresh out of ideas. I plan so many parties for friends that now when it’s my turn, I’m not sure what I’ll be doing! Thanks for the great printables and I can’t wait to immerse myself more in your blog! Hop over for a visit if you have a chance…
I , too am turning 30 this year. In May. I am slightly frightened by the whole thing, because even though I have two children a mortgage, and a full time job, I don’t feel grown up yet. Maybe it’s all the fun I have! So birthday cheers to you my friend! Let the 30s be even more fun and memorable than the 20s!Woohoo!
This year is my sister and I’s 30th birthday!!! We are twins! She likes aqua and I like blue, so this is a great median!!! Thanks so much for the printables!! 30 is definitely refreshing and we are looking forward to this milestone!!!
Thank you so much for designing these and sharing. I was stoked to find cupcake toppers for a 30th birthday come up that didn’t look like they were from the 70’s! You rock!

These are great! Thanks for sharing. I’m turning 30 in June and told my husband he can’t tease unless he’s throwing me a party, too!
