Baby Shower Invitations

Hello!

I can type with two hands again. Yay!  The anti inflammatory and brace have helped so much :)  I'm looking forward to getting scrappy tonight!

Just wanted to pop in to finally share those baby shower invitations that I made back in March. It feels like a lifetime ago. I haven't posted this on my blog before but my nephew was born 2 months early on March 23rd, just a few weeks after we mailed out the invitations.  His name is Kaleb and he is doing fabulous! He will be 9 weeks old tomorrow.  I get to see him again this weekend and I can't wait :)  Yes, I'm a proud auntie for sure.

I created these pocket cards using directions from Splitcoast Stampers~

The inserts were stamped using an invitation stamp from Taylored Expressions - although I'd recommend creating something on the computer to save time. I didn't think of that as I had my heart set on using the stamp. The monkey, zebra and lion were all cut using the Create a Critter cricut cartridge. I made 40 altogether between the 3 styles.  I picked up the "It's a Shower!" stamp from Joann Fabrics. I got to use up lots of old blue cardstock and the patterned paper is from a small DCWV stack. 

Here's a picture of me and my nephew taken this past weekend :) 


Thanks for stopping by!
