rustic floral // baby shower

this has to be one of my all-time favorites! we were inspired by the venue and did a rustic floral theme to go with the restaurant decor, incorporating doilies, wood and florals in pink, orange and mint. we did invitations, thank you cards, book inserts, namecards, favor tags and signage. my client decorated with burlap & lace, doilies, and flowers in assorted vintage vases to complete the look.

venue: babette's  |  desserts: sweet & saucy

this design is also available for customization in my etsy shop HERE!

fit for a king // baby shower

laura is one of my favorite clients... she always has great ideas and throws the most amazing parties! so naturally, for her baby shower (thrown by her friends) it needed to be good. i brainstormed with the hostesses, and we came up with a "royal" theme, playing off the baby's name. of course we had to use metallic gold envelopes and rich blue colors (because this mama hates pastels!). in addition to the invitations, thank you cards & labels, we did some signage and favor tags, which were fastened to burlap bags with bath goodies. how cute are those little crown cookies?!

tea time with eloise // baby shower

i have had the privilege of working on vanessa's bridal shower, wedding, holiday cards, and now her baby shower! since her baby girl will be named eloise, her friends and family threw her a "tea time with eloise" themed baby shower, based on the "eloise at the plaza" books. i love the bold black and white stripes with the hot pink and touches of gold! this shower looks like it's out of a magazine...  i'm so glad i could be a part of it!

ombre & arrows // baby shower

rock the cradle // baby shower

i had so much fun working on this rock & roll themed baby shower! we really tried hard to keep it cool (and not cheesy), so when my client told me one of the husbands said the invitation looked "awesome"?? mission accomplished. 

we made the invitations look like concert tickets, the address wraps like VIP wristbands, and incorporated different sayings and songs throughout the stickers and signage. 

coolest baby around.

distinguished gentleman // baby shower

this client wanted a fun "hipster baby" theme, but wanted to stay away from the usual mustache graphic (which i can appreciate). instead we used bow ties & glasses, and incorporated a baby pin in shades of gray, mustard, aqua & maroon. we did invitations, address wraps, thank you cards and "little man" mad libs. i love how it turned out!

two peas in a pod // twin baby shower

invitation

thank you card, food signs & desserts (by dutch girl cookies)

my brother and sister-in-law will be welcoming twin girls in a couple months! i had the privilege of doing the invitations, and the theme was "two peas in a pod" so i created a simple little pea graphic in a peach and green color scheme with a geometric pattern. my sister was in charge of the dessert table... doesn't it look incredible? and the desserts were as delicious as they were beautiful.

troop simpson // camping themed baby shower

this baby shower was inspired by the expecting couples' nursery.  when i saw their adorable nursery decor with its rustic style, stripes, and neutral colors with pops of yellow... i thought a camping theme would be perfect. luckily, my client did too! we started with a "troop simpson" logo, then created signage, stickers, wishes for baby stickers for the book station, and thank you cards.

woodland // baby shower

invitation & address wrap

thank you card, coffee bar menu & sticker for cups

my mother-in-law threw me a baby shower back in february and asked if i wanted to do the invitations. i know that may seem weird to some, but i actually love when i get the chance to design something for myself or my kids! i decided to stick with the theme and colors of the nursery, and since we didn't reveal bishop's name until he was born, we stuck with the letter B!

this woodland baby shower invitation is available here in my etsy shop!

fiesta // baby shower

vanessa is one of my favorite clients because she always has great ideas & is extremely organized. plus she is super sweet! she contacted me a few months ago to help her with paper goods for a fiesta-themed baby shower. the mama-to-be LOVES all things mexico & monkey, so we incorporated both... and it was perfect since the shower was the weekend before cinco de mayo. 

we did a papel picado theme (with a pop of monkey!) in pinks, orange and turquoise. i contacted my friend sarah at yarn bombed antlers, and she whipped up some awesome yarn-bombed maracas that were used as party favors, attached to mini bottles of patron. we did invitations, thank you cards, address labels, wishes for baby stickers for the book station, menus, and a banner! it turned out amazing!

southern (california) gentleman baby shower

since this mommy-to-be is from louisiana (but now lives in sunny so cal with her hubby), her friends wanted to throw her a southern california gentleman themed shower! we incorporated bow ties, mustaches and a chalkboard texture in shades of turquoise, green and gray. we covered all the bases with invitations, address wraps & labels, thank you cards, wishes for baby cards, stickers and a pennant-style banner! i love how it all came together.

elephant baby shower invitation + thank you

alexis found and loved this cute, free printable, so we used it for her baby shower invitations but changed up the color scheme to match her nursery. i also designed a coordinating thank you card and an advice card for the guests to fill out at the shower.
