Logan's mommy Mahsa is a good friend of mine. Her oldest son, Max is just two days younger than my oldest son. So I was thrilled to get to create a birth announcement for her after Logan was born.
JoAnna's Baby Shower
I worked with JoAnna on her wedding invitations many years ago and I was honored when she asked me to create baby shower invitations too!
I adore these mom and baby elephants!!
This small insert accompanied each invitation.
I created wraparound address labels and JoAnna adhered them to coordinating envelopes.
I created a "Wishes for Baby" card and each guest filled one out.
Lastly, we created a simple favor tag that JoAnna printed as stickers for treat bags.
I love how everything turned out!! I loved it all so much that I created gender neutral version that's currently for sale in my Etsy shop. Check it out!
Jaxon's Birth Announcement
I had a blast working with JoAnna on her wedding invitations and printed items for her baby shower. But it was really an honor to get to create a birth announcement for her little boy.
This one required a little bit of finesse with Photoshop as the blanket Jaxon is sleeping on was only about 24" square. So I had to extend it top and bottom and make it look like a much bigger blanket. It was a really fun challenge!
The baby elephant at the bottom is the same one that was on JoAnna's baby shower invitations too!
Welcome to the world Jaxon!
Sweet Pea Baby Shower
I created this baby shower suite for my friend's baby shower a few years ago and then I expanded on the theme to create a suite that is available in my Etsy shop or can be customized.
The graphic at the top shows two peas in this mama's family, but I also have it available with just one pea.
The invitations are sized to fit a #10 envelope and the text below the "peas join us" can be edited. There's space at the bottom to list the mom-to- be's registry info.
Simple cupcake toppers. We tried to top cupcakes with crushed Oreo cookies to give the illusion of dirt, but I don't think it was very successful.
Napkin rings. These can also be wrapped around candles or vases.
Don't have fun swirly napkins?? I made these with some pinking shears. No need to hem!
The welcome banner!
Water bottle labels. These have a baby-themed nutritional label on the back.
Place cards. These can also be food labels for a buffet.
Favor boxes. These are about two inches cubed and are kind of a pain in the butt to assemble, but they are adorable once you're done!
Lastly, I made a baby-themed crossword puzzle. I can always customize this for clues specific to you and your family, just shoot me a message or email and we can discuss pricing.
Liddy's Birth Announcement
This birth announcement is one example of how much I love my job. I worked with Abby and Mark on their wedding invitations. Knowing that they thought of me when it was time for a birth announcement totally made my day!!
Welcome to the world Liddy!!
