Hey who doesn’t love a good baby shower favor?
Better yet, who doesn’t love a super cute DIY baby shower favor?
Yep. These little mini paper purses are the going to be the baby shower favor for my friend Alex’s baby shower girls night.
She was already having a shower thrown by her family and didn’t want multiple showers, so we a doing a girls night out shower. Its the best of both worlds: celebration and close friends. Who says a celebration has to be a huge event anyhow? We are just going to dinner and going to laugh and be silly. I can’t wait!
What does one put on the side of the little paper purses?
A baby giraffe of course.
What does one put inside these cute little purses?
Little nuggets of course.
Chocolate ones.
I have to be honest and tell you that while I did participate in making the purses, I had A LOT of help (as in she supplied all the paper, stamps and cutting machine as well as all the know how) from my wonderful neighbor Amy. She is a Stampin Up, paper crafting master. And better than that, she’s just a fabulous person. So while I don’t have a tutorial for you, she promised she will post one for you (coming as soon as I send her these pics!). Check out her blog StampinWithAHeart to see more of her mad skills.
I can, however take credit for our invites. I made these using pic monkey and then printed them on card stock.
I did change the info on this sample one so that my friends info isn’t all over the web, but you get the picture.
Its been a crazy week for me as I finally began a job, which is exciting, but overwhelming and exhausting. After this post, I am off to bed for the evening.
Tomorrow’s baby shower girls night will definitely be a welcomed break. Whoo hoo for baby Caroline!
