I went up to 11 months but i faked it...it was really a 10 month picture that was taken after his first haircut so he looked older :)

I went up to 10 months as well...

ETA: I did the same thing as Lisa said above. I took a 10 months picture from after he got his haircut.

Good morning! Can I ask what the invitations looked like? Did you have all the photos from the first year in the front? I never heard of this - IT SOUNDS SO COOL!! I am just trying to picture it.

Our first picture was from birth and the last one was 11 months. DD's party was 2 weeks after her birthday so we were able to get a picture of 11 months. Then for the big picture we she was 11 months old.

I didn't do a photo invitation. But I made photo collages and hung them up at the party. Each collage was a month. So I went up to 11 months...

I used the grid option on Photoshop!

I did the same. I went up to 11 mths and purposely left the 12 mths blank since the party was on her actual birthdayChat Icon

Re: For those that did progression photo's for birthday invitations

I am not photoshop savvy at all so I did mine on either Shutterfly or Winkflash. I don't remember which one. It allowed for 9 pics so I just used progressive ones from throughout the year. You can't really tell but the background is pink.

I wanted to include another pic from 11 months old as well; and the RSVP info wouldn't fit on the invite so I made this and included it with the invitation. People loved it, and remembered to RSVP! (It looks big here, but was actually about a wallet-sized pic).

I use the guides on Photoshop and when I make the box to drop the pictures in I use the marquee tool and then in the drop down menu instead of normal I select fixed size and set the size I want so they are all exactly the same size.
