My cousin Sonia is due in late January or early February. She is having a baby girl, Coral! :-) Erika and I are throwing her a baby shower. I put myself in charge of invitations. I really, really wanted to make them for her. I went through a long process until I finally came up with the final draft.
I first drew something, which you can see on the right. It has a rattle and flower and says, "it's a girl"... but then I thought that maybe is something you say for after the baby has been born, right? LOL So then I typed something up for the invite and printed on some thick, wallpaper-like paper, which you can see in the middle. But the writing just didn't show up. So then, finally, I printed it out on plain cardstock and decided I would pretty it up around the wording.
My mom totally helped me out! I decided that flowers would be really cute with petals in all different colors and patterns of my thick paper (it's for scrapbooking.) So we cut a million little petals from select paper.
One that was half way done. We needed more design.
Some finished products amongst the chaos that was my dining room table LOL
Sealed and ready to send!
