By Request: "She’s About to Pop!" Invitation Downloads


It was gourmet group again this weekend, and my friends Jackie and Dierdre did not disappoint! We were treated to an evening of middle eastern cuisine, great atmosphere, and even belly dancing!They transformed Jackie’s living room by placing the tables on the floor and lining the walls with rich colored fabric. There were pillows all…
I was just starting to get excited about Easter, when the folks at Favor Affair reminded me that graduation isn’t all that far off for some of us and those planning any sort of graduation festivities better get planning (don’t worry, back to Easter and birthday parties, soon). So I dug up the announcements I…
All photos (except invitation) by Jodee Ballantyne Last week, Shannon from My Baby Clothes Boutique did a guest post (and a GIVEAWAY) about having a tea party with your toddler. So much of what she said reminded me of this party my daughter and I threw for her friends. It wasn’t her birthday, or…
You’ve got to check out this cake that my sister, Kerali, made for her son, Owen’s fifth birthday! I did mention that insanity runs rampant in my family, right?But don’t worry, she had help…Owen was apparently the chief frosting mixer. It looks great from all angles! I especially love the idea of using the layers…
What did birthday parties look like in 1904? I’m not sure, but I tried to figure it out for my daughter’s 9th b-day party this weekend. Being largely pregnant, and all, I tried to simplify a little from what I would normally do (but it never quite works out that way). Several months ago, they…
In case you weren’t getting enough of parties around here, Laurie @ Tip Junkie, is collecting and sharing birthday party ideas all week (keep a look-out for some ideas from yours truly). So far I have fallen in love with the details of this fairy party, shared by the Domestic Diva.Hmmm. Maybe I’ll wait a…

I Love The Way You Did The Flower With The Words Going Around, How Exactly Did You Do That Because I Am Really Interested In Doing It For My Own Baby Shower !
Designing the flowers the way I did with the text going around, can be kind of tricky. You have to have the right kind of software (like photoshop) that uses layers and then you’d create a text path around the shape of the flower. It would be difficult to tell you exactly how to do it, since I don’t know what software you have and it took me a bit of trial and error to get it right.
You might just google “creating a text path” and the name of the software you use. Also, I think it may have helped that the flower was a vector image I was able to “draw” and attach text to. It’s honestly been so long and I have different software now. Not sure I could do a tutorial on it.
Good luck!
you can use picnik
I love this theme! My shower is 2 mths. away so I have lots of time to focus on it! Thanks for the invitation templates. I’m trying to get to the ‘soda pop’ labels, but the site is not cooperating 🙁 Thanks so much for sharing!
Thanks for the idea, I was wondering how you mailed these? They don’t look like they will fit in a regular envelope. Or did you pass them out by hand?
I think they hand delivered most of them. If you are putting them around the tootsie pop that would be easiest, or I think you could fold the petals up and put them in a small mailing tube.
I LOVE THIS IDEA! I would love to do this for the two showers I am planning. I don’t see how I can download your cute flower.
Can you help me? Or is this part of your awesome secret to keep? 😉
Hi Lisa!
No Secret. To download, right click on the image you want and click “save as.” Save the file to your computer and pull it up in some kind of graphics or word processing program to print. They are just in a picture format at this time, but should work fine.
I hope both of your showers are big hits!
