Baby Shower Invites

Well I finished up my baby shower invites :). Now I cant take all the credit my husband did help me a little bit. He made the rain stencil, the cloud cuts, and folded all of the cards for me.. he even helped glue together some of the animals! He's the best!

So for this baby we're doing a Forest/nature theme for her nursery. So of course that's the theme for the baby shower. My SIL is actually throwing it but asked me to make the invites since I have the Cricut. Its gonna be on Aug 6 :) its gonna be so cute!

Adam had the idea on the fold for these cards and I thought it was cute so Adam folded them all.. I believe he folded 1/3 of the front over. Then he made a raindrop template (my idea lol) and some clouds on SCAL. I used a blue blow pen to make the rain drops all over the cards... that was hard work lol!

Each animal is cut at 3 1/4 inch using Create A Critter. I wanted them cards to match the room theme (all of the animals are going to be bright and colorful, not true to nature). I put the animals on the fold line of the card fronts. The "Its a shower" stamp I got at Michaels in the dollar stamps awhile ago and stamped this onto the clouds in black. I put this on the fold in the front of the card above the animal. I used a "You're invited" stamp I got a few years ago for the inside and used pink chalk ink and purple for the "<3 to have you come" on the bottom. Hope you like em!

Im entering these into the following challenges:


Thanks for stoppin' by and have a great day!
