Were you wondering which invitation I chose? Well, I just couldn't decide, so...I did a few of each and they are waiting in my mailbox for the mailman to pick them up this morning. They were so easy to make and they turned out so cute!(by the way, you may be surprised to know that my personal favorite was the lime green with the bright orange...different for me I know, but so cheerful!)
I can't tell you too many times just how much I looooooove that Silhouette machine that made it possible to make those darling diapers. It is just the coolest thing and it has opened up a whole new creative world for me. ( I just realized that I sound like I had a religious experience due to this machine...not quite, but...well, you know I have a bit of a flair for drama. Suffice to say I haven't regretted this purchase at all.)
Okay...the double shower.(How fun is this gonna be?! Two grandbabies!) As for the theme...It's a coin toss at this point, since we won't know Peanut B's sex until the week before the shower...so, I have two roughed out plans all set to go. (I know, you're not even surprised.)
Option 1 (if we are expecting a boy and a girl)
I want to go with a "buttons and Bows" theme...with pink and blue ribbons and buttons. Pink and blue babycakes and lots of pink and blue on the buffet table (with blue buttons and pink ribbons and vintage family baby photos...)
Option 2 (if we are expecting 2 boys)
I want to make a banner that reads "oh boy oh boy" and of course everything will be blue. (Robins egg blue) There will be cupcakes (I'm thinking the bird's nests with 2 lil' blue eggs in them) and other treats.. (and Lisa, you cracked me up with the suggestion of serving Vienna sausages!)
Now, I've got to figure out exactly what we'll be doing at his shower besides eating and watching the two mama's to be open gifts...any suggestions?
