How to get baby shower cards
Before you decide on the type of cards you want to send to guests, you need to finalize the list of guests who will be invited to the function. Once you know the number of guests, you can calculate your budget. Based on the available budget, you can make the decision to choose ready-made invitation cards that may cost more or make them at home, handwritten or computer printed. If your budget is tight, you can even look for free baby shower invitation cards available at certain stores. These free cards are simple, but they serve their purpose.
If you want to organize a baby shower based on a theme, you must finalize the theme before sending the invitation cards. In fact, it’s best to have invitation cards that are in keeping with your chosen theme. This can give guests an idea of the theme and they can come prepared accordingly.
You can find various types of baby shower cards in stores. You now have the option to request these cards directly when making the payment. Or you can take a hint from these designs and make your own cards at home with the help of your computer or by hand. The advantage of going for homemade invitation cards is that they cost less and give you the opportunity to use your imagination to make the cards look unique.
Some clues
You can decorate the baby shower cards with photos of babies, miniature bottles, baby shoes, burp clothes, small slippers, stuffed animals, etc. These things give invitation cards a cute look. For classier baby shower invitations, you can make the invitation card in the shape of a bib or place the invitation inside a confetti-filled baby bottle for a more creative and festive look. In case you know the gender of the baby, you can have pink invitations for girls and blue ones for boys.
things to remember
There are some essential facts that you should not omit to mention in your baby shower cards. This includes the expectant mother’s name, baby shower date, time, and location, directions to the location, RSVP, party theme, and dress code (if applicable). Additional invitations should be sent out far enough in advance to give invitees enough time to submit their responses. It is best to send the invitation cards two weeks in advance.
