So I thought I'd give you a sneak peak into the baby shower I'm decorating for tonight...this is going to be so fun. It's for a gal named Hannah who's somewhat of a newcomer to our church, and my generous friend Sarah just recently offered to host a baby shower for her. But time is of the essence, because baby Abigail is already here...and pushing 3 1/2 months old! So we gotta get this girl some presents! (This goes to show that a LOT can be accomplished in a week, which is all the time I've had to plan for this...but since I usually procrastinate anyway, I suppose this isn't all that unusual after all!)Anyway. Here's the custom invite I created. I taped it to this metal picture frame for display at the party...and it helped me photograph it a little better, too...
And some lovely tidbits which are soon to be a banner (oh, I do love a good vintagey banner) and tags for favors...
And, of course, paper plates and cups. And what's that I see in the little Martha Stewart package? Cupcake wrappers? Does anybody here like cupcakes?
They're alright, I guess.
Okay, okay, you got me - I love 'em! But who doesn't?
Stay tuned for more pics later this week after the shower. It's going to be sweet!

ReplyDeleteIt's funny because I just bought those exact combo of papers at Michaels to decoupage (sp?) my little girl's wooden letters that spell her name out.
