Turn your Invitation into a Statement

When it came time for our friend, Linda’s, baby shower, I of course offered to handle the invitations. She did not know whether the baby was a boy or a girl, so we chose to have a “Love That Belly” baby shower featuring brown with pink, greens and blues. We found this beautiful invitation that featured a brown silhouette of an expectant mama’s belly on a soft blue/light turquoise-ish background. It fit our friend perfectly! But, I wanted to spice it up a little and bring in the other colors even more.
Much like my 2-year-old daughter, all it needed was a bow. I love the way it turned out! The ribbon added the other colors to make it truly fit with our theme and décor, and it drew attention to that belly like it was made for it!
It really turned the invitation into a conversation-starter. As the RSVPs started coming in, so many of the ladies commented on the amazing invitation! It was building excitement for our event and showing that extra level of uniqueness.
At PaperandPunch.com, we offer tubes of glitter glue, which provide another way to add sparkle and interest to any invitation. We recently used this technique on some margarita invitations, and they looked amazing! The glitter was applied to the rim of the glass to look like the sparkly salt. Again, the guests commented on our great invitations.
It’s that little something extra that turns an invitation into a statement!
