simple baby shower invites.

IMG_7673

So many of my girlfriends are expecting babies this fall (four out of my six bridesmaids have/will deliver in 2015). We are using one of them as an excuse to have a quick college reunion/couple's shower.

Per usual, invites were unnecessary (flights have been booked, plans have been made) but these simple invites are so fun for me to make.

And since we don't know the gender AND it's going to be super casual, I got to get a bit outside the "baby" theme and instead went with a "growing" theme which was really just an excuse to use these amazing plant icons. HOW CUTE ARE THOSE?! I tucked the family initials into the pots and left one as a question mark to represent the new little one. Other fonts used are Fenwick Outline and Futura Medium.

We needed just a few and I printed 4 to a page onto white textured cardstock and tucked into kraft envelopes. Easy as always, but who doesn't love mail?

ps, more invites from the past few years: NYE invites, baby shower, bachelorette party, bridal shower.

pps, a free rainbow thank you card download from a few months back.

My name is Elise Blaha Cripe. I live in San Diego, California with my husband and our two young daughters.

I make stuff like it's my job.

In 2015 I launched GET TO WORK BOOK®, a daily planner + goal-setting journal. In October 2019, my book about getting stuff done, Big Dreams, Daily Joys hit bookstores everywhere. For almost ten years, this blog was where I shared (daily!) general life musings, insight into being a small business owner and the occasional craft project. In 2021, I am sharing again as we prepare to move back home to Northern California and renovate our dream cottage. I have closed comments, but feel free to email me at elise[@]gettoworkbook.com if you have any questions about a post you see here.

If you're new here, I invite you to browse the archives, read my small business story or start with some of my favorite things to write about, DIY home decor & goal-setting. You can also listen to my motivational speech about the power of making bold statements.

Still looking for more content? Listen to my creative podcast, take one of my eCourses or subscribe to my newsletter.

Thank you so much for dropping by.
