A baby shower is one of the special events in the life of a mother to be shared with friends before the actual birth. Invitations should set the mood and make this occasion memorable to everyone present.

This baby shower usually happens a month or 2 in advance and making the right invitation can be just as challenging as planning the entire event.

One can get an invitation that has been made by a card company but for it to be special, it is best to choose a design then have it custom made. Since the host is usually a very close friend of the mother, that person can talk to the mother and other members of the family what kind of theme will be appropriate for the party.

After getting all the ideas in and finally choosing what theme will be used, the friend will already have an idea what kind of invitation it is and how it will look like.

For a girl, the theme could be a star which could highlight the future. An invitation can be shaped into a star with the nursery rhyme song inside.

For a boy, the theme could be a cowboy. An invitation can be made with the design of a cartoon character in the front and other special details inside.

An invitation can also be made depending on the season. In the summer, with the weather being a bit humid, the ideal theme will be a summer shower that comes with a lot of ice cream. The invitation can be made in the shape of an ice cream.

Just like any other invitation, it should have the name of the person to be invited, when and where the event will take place, the contact number of the one hosting the event and the gender of the baby if this is applicable.

Posted by on October 26, 2011 No comments

Preparing for a baby can be very costly. The parents will have to save for the hospital expenses, the baby clothes, the infant formula and the regular medical check-ups.

In this case, if the friends of the parents-to-be and relatives prepare a baby shower party, it can help a lot in minimizing the parents burden in the costs when the baby is delivered.

The baby shower is usually done one or two months before the baby is born. It is discouraged to schedule the baby shower during the month that the baby will be born. At times, the baby shower is held after the baby is born so gifts can be more specific for a boy or a girl.

Regardless of the date when the baby shower is held, the reason for it is to celebrate the birth of a child. The parents friends and family share with them the joy of welcoming the child into the family.

During baby showers, the guests may bring baby clothes, toys, cribs and other necessities for the baby. The parents may also decide on what gifts they would like to receive to eliminate accumulation of the items that they already have.

In as much as the baby shower party is usually done before the baby is delivered, the partys theme is still directed towards the baby and the mother. Therefore, the person who is throwing the baby shower should choose the theme very carefully.

Before sending out the baby shower invitations, make sure that you have already decided what will be the baby shower theme.

If you are preparing a baby shower for a member of your family or friend, make sure that you have prepared the guest list ahead of time. If possible, check with the mom-to-be to see if the guest list and the date are fine, unless you are planning a surprise party.

Versatile invitation design: baby shower footprint

Posted by on October 11, 2011 No comments

A babys footprint says everything: the innocence, tenderness and charm of a newborn. These values come to mind of anyone who sees it. No wonder it is a favorite theme for occasions that call for such, like that of a baby shower. Here is a guide on how to use the babys footprint in the baby shower invitation.

Printed

The first way of using the footprint is to print them on the invitation. You may use a single or both feet as the main design. Immediately, your guests will know that it is a baby shower invitation, just by seeing the footprints. Make the print standout by using a complementary color to the background or the paper color.

As a supplementary to the text of the card, baby footprints can serve as a silhouette background of the text. As a silhouette, footprints are effective as outlines, instead of filled with colors. As an outline, only the marks where the babys feet press the ground (balls of the toes and heel and sides of the feet) are highlighted.

For an animated effect use several small footprints in the main design or silhouette background. To make it appear like a baby just walked across the page, reduce the size of the footprints, as the trail moves from the fore to the rear ground.

Embossed

Embossing is a process of creating relief on the paper by using a special tool to engrave the paper. Since this uses a special tool, it is best to leave the manufacturing of this kind of invitation to the professionals.
