Simple Yet Great Ideas for Your Baby shower Footprint Invitations

Get everyone excited to go to a loved one's baby shower by making the cutest baby shower footprint invitations. Baby footprints are the most endearing sight to behold. They are a reminder of cute little babies who took their first breath when they were born. Here are wonderful suggestions on how you are going to design and make your whimsical footprint invitations.

1.If you are not much of the artistic type, simply download ready designs from the Internet and print them out yourself. There are many designs and colors to choose from. You simply edit the text and you have your personalized footprint invitation.

2.If you feel that it would be more fun to do the invitations yourself, simply draw an outline of a little footprint with pencils or crayons. Then color the foot with paint or colored markers. You may write the details of the event on the foot itself or on the back of the paper.

3.You may want to have a regular rectangular card and just draw tiny footprints on the card as if a baby has walked on it. That would be really cute.

4.There are other simpler ways to put those little footprints on the card. You may buy a special stamp that is shaped like a footprint and just stamp away. Create a design with this stamp and be original. This would even look more professional because of the uniformity of the footprint size.

5.Consider the material of the paper, too. There are a wide range of materials to choose from. There are thin, translucent papers and there are thick and textured papers. Choose one that would be easy to decorate.

6.You might also want to just create the footprint as an added texture in the invitation. This you can do by buying special tools from bookstores or specialty shops that will allow you to emboss the shape on the paper. Although they come out more expensive, they are classier and more beautiful to look at.

7.The color of the footprint invitation should also match the theme of the party or the gender of the coming baby. Blues and greens are perfect for boys while yellows and pinks would be lovely for girls.

Starting out with an extraordinary invitation with a baby footprint for your baby shower will drive excitement for your guests and will be especially delightful for the expectant mom. Baby footprint invitations are simply adorable. Use this great idea for the baby shower you will give.
