Tie Baby Shower Invitations and a Free Printable

My mom, sister-in-law, and I had a baby shower for my sister this weekend. She is due with a little boy in September and we are all so excited! My first time being an aunt. My sister-in-law came up with the great idea to incorporate ties into the shower because this little boys dad is obsessed.

Here's what I came up with for the invitations.


I was really pleased with how they turned out. It is always such fun to design something like this. And if anyone is interested I made a fill-in-the-blank version to share.

I have yet to even look at the pictures I took over the weekend, but I'll be sure to share some of the decorations from the shower when I do.

    Making baby shower invitations is a fantastic way to display you and your partner's excitement to become father and mother. Show your creativity. Don't be frightened to try things out. Remember that having a baby is a fun part of being a parent.
