Amy's Baby Shower Invitation

I had SO much fun doing this invitation.  I could not wait until Amy's 18 week checkup so we could find out if I was going to be throwing a blue and red shower, or a pink and green one.... SO excited to hear that its pink and green this go-round!

After I heard the news that its "pink", I darted to Hobby Lobby to get some ideas for the invitation.  I knew I wanted a diaper pocket invitation.  This is what I came up with.  (Alissa helped do wording because I could not get my writer's block to loosen up! Thanks, Alissa!)



The colors are hard to tell for some reason, but the pink is a bright pinkish (not Pepto Bismol)/ more raspberry pinkish color and the green is a limey green.

I created the diaper pocket, then created an insert for the invitation details that has "lace" trim around the legs of the "diaper".  The wording pulls out and the diaper is nicely secured shut with the green and white gingham diaper pin.





The invitation envelopes have a fun polkadot border around the invite name.


Stay tuned for the complete shower get-up! (Oct 18th!)
