A few weeks ago, I posted some of the inspiration for the baby shower I was throwing for my best friend Elizabeth and her sweet baby on the way, Mary Mathews. I had the most fun working on this shower, but I would have to say that my most favorite aspect of it all was the invitations! I have always loved pretty paper, and I was thrilled that I got to pick out something gorgeous for my favorite girls! In keeping with the theme, I found a gorgeous invitation on Etsy that was designed by Allison of Allison Kizer Designs. The invitation was originally hot pink, but I had her change it to more of a peachy light pink. I also had her make the little insert that instructed guests to bring a book instead of a card, and round monogram stickers. She was so sweet to deal with all of my crazy requests and everything turned out perfect! If you need any invitations or party supplies, she's your girl!
I ordered the kraft paper envelopes from my favorite place, Paper Source, and used an opaque white marker to write all of the addresses. I seriously cannot get enough of kraft paper; I love how it turned out! I wrapped the invitation and the little insert in a doilie from Michael's, then used pink and white baker's twine (another Etsy purchase) to tie a bow around it to hold it together.
Stationery I made for Mary Mathews using pink blank folded cards and envelopes from Michael's with the monogram stickers Allison designed! Easy peasy, and oh so cute!
