This stack of papers...
became this...
A friend and I are hosting a Halloween themed baby shower for another friend of ours (yes, she loves Halloween as much as I do). The color scheme is traditional black and orange with a bit of blue thrown into the mix since the new arrival will be a boy.
Speaking of boy, this little detail is my favorite on the invite.
After designing the invites I realized that the little strip of blue paper might not be enough info for guests to know that Kendall is having a boy so I added this little tag. I love it!
Although these are for a baby shower they would work equally as well for any Halloween bash you may be throwing. Want to recreate this invite? Here's what I used...
striped black and cream paper: My Mind's Eye, The Spider Web "Toil and Trouble"
orange paper: Bazzill
"oh boy" tag: my design, black box with lettering in white, printed on cardstock
"baby shower" and "boy" font: Ithornet
I put it all together with my trusty Xyron - the crafting tool that I can't live without. Sure you can use double sided tape but why would you when you can use the Xyron. If you don't have one Christmas is coming up - you may want to ask Santa.
Be sure to click on all of the above links for more info and stayed tuned for pictures of the shower in a couple weeks.
