Invite Ideas?

The first half of this post is mostly for my sister because other means of communication have failed due to dial-up internet and problems with my cell phone. However, everyone is welcome to indulge in it's contents.

I recently recieved a birthday party invitation from a friend. I am in love with it! i think it's adorable so I was hoping I could cowboy it up & use the same general layout for the wedding invites! So that's what I need help with, converting it to country wedding style featuring my chosen colors! And that's why I need my sister on this... she's a pro!! :) Of course, I am open to any other design(s) that anyone may come up with. Anyways, here's the front:
I'm wanting a pic of me and Chebo to be included on this, so I was thinking we could put it where the pink square that says "happy birthday 25th" is. We are planning on taking some engagement pictures soon, either while horseback riding, or in Tombstone or Old Tucson, so they can have some nice western flair! Also I found some little cowboy hat, boot, horse and horseshoe charms that may be a perfect replacement for the cupcake at the top but like I said, I'm open to ideas!! Those charms (seen at left) can be found at: http://satnspurs.com/product_info.php?products_id=205
By the way, this invite is 4.25 inches wide & 5.5 inches tall.

AND heres the back:
The back is pretty basic, I have to figure out the wording and it just needs to be westernized! Thanx for taking a look at the ideas I have and I look forward to hear what y'all think!!



This has nothing at all to do with wedding invitations, but Chebo & I went to see Public Enemies the movie based on a true story about John Dillinger (played by Johnny Depp), and other bank robbers during the Great Depression. & OMG we LOVED it, it was great but also very sad!

And also totally off the subject, I spent an hour at the pool today, & finally my legs are sportin' a barely there tan! YAY!!
