Welcome Baby Party: The Invitations (2015)

I have been working lately to host a welcome baby party for my sister and newest niece who are staying in town for a couple of weeks. Since my sister lives a few hours away (and she's all newborn exhausted) we thought it would be better to wait until she got here to set the date for her party.  That way we could make sure to plan it when my sister was (hopefully) a bit more rested.

I took a few photos of my niece on a Monday, made the invitations that night and planned the party for the following Saturday.  It was a whirlwind, but well worth it!

Usually I like to construct paper invitations, but there was no time for that (or the time it would take to mail them).  I knew I needed to send the invites out electronically but still wanted them to be cute, so I turned to MyScrapNook to quickly create adorable invitations.



 Pretty in Pink

The theme of the party included daisies and lots of pink.  when creating this invite, I first chose a pink polka-dot background, then layered the white 'sheet' on top.  This gave me a nice clean space to add the text and a photo of Baby D (not included here).  I added a a few pink daisies at the corners, then popped in the text.  ....Not too bad for 12:30 on a Monday night, huh?  :D

 In case you can't see it clearly, here is the text:

We are tickled pink & excited to say
That baby ____ has made our day!

Join us for a 'meet & eat'
(Cake & punch to be served)

***Don't forget to add the date, time, ect!



Free Printable

I included this blank template in case anyone wanted to use the same theme.  Just right click on the image and save to your computer.  You can print out the image as it is here, add text, use it electronically...the possibilities are endless!

I hope you enjoyed, thanks for stopping by!
