Baby Shower Invites

This is the idea I had when my sister said she wanted to stamp some Baby Shower invitations for my party. I love how when you read them in the envelope they say Baby Shower, but when you pull out the tag they read Baby Boy. I used Whisper White and Vanilla and Kraft card stock for the tags and envies. Chocolate chip, Soft Sky, Sahara Sand SU! inks, and also Papertrey Summer Sunrise (orange). I just needed a lighter orange than Pumpkin Pie, and didn't have the Almost Apricot which would have worked as well. These are the colors I chose for the baby also. Stamp Sets were-criss cross background from the retired Looks Like Spring(one of my very favorites), Rough Edges Alphabet, greeting from the retired Hugs &Wishes set , and stars from Wanted set and Wild West Alphabet. On tag I also used the wish list stamp from the Taking Care of Business set. I used some decorative scissors (Provo Craft) and the indispensible Crop-a-Dile to punch through all the layers and set the eyelets. A little twine, ribbon, and a colored staple (?) finish off the accessories used. No tape or glue was necessary for this project. All I have to do now is have this baby. It could be any day!!!! Thanks for checking out my blog, and for those who have been waiting. I just didn't expect this baby to be trying to come so soon. Have a great weekend!
