sweet baby kisses.


i am in love with this invitation from cross my heart!

my sweet friend michelle and her hubby jeremy are expecting their first child in october. their new baby girl will be named chloe faith... how sweet is that?

chloe faith's super cute nursery features cheerful bedding & accessories in coral, lime green and pale blue, so i wanted an invitation that showed off those colors. i was so excited when i found this one!

i printed the invitation in green & coral to match the geometric graphic on the paper. the clean font is "champagne & limosuines," and the scripty font is "monterrey."

i am sure that chloe faith will be just as bright, fun, and happy as this little invitation to a party in celebration of her little life! :)

baby shower: boy, oh boy.


a family friend from church, carol, is throwing shower for her niece, angelica, who is expecting new baby boy.

this invitation is by cross my heart, a local invitation company... which i LOVE. everything they make is SO cute! i love the funky stroller and gifts on this whimsical turquoise & lime invite.

i used "champagne & limosines" for the body of the text, and "amelie" for the mommy-to-be's name. all the ink was done in black, to keep it clean and simple. :)

baby shower: ready for take-off.


this super cute invitation is for my friend, sunny's baby shower. her little guy is due in mid-september. the nursery has a vintage airplane, car & truck theme, so this invitation was perfect!

the invitation is by lipstick shades. their selections are all very cute, clean and modern! and each invitation comes with a coordinating lined envelope. (sunny's envelopes were lined with the red, gred and blue polka-dotted pattern from the bottom of the card.)

i used "century gothic" in all lower-case for the text. i thought its clean, modern style matched the invitation very well. i printed the bulk of the text in baby blue, to match the images on the invitation.

sunny's name is in "amelie" (one of my favorites), to add a little whimsy to the boyish card. i accented with red to match the details in the invitation.
