{Baby Logan's Shower Invites for Melissa...}

Mike and I have friends from the military, Joe and Melissa. We've known them for 17 years. They live in Washington, we live in So Cal. Does that stop the friendship? Nope! Joe and Melissa are the type of people that you can pick up the phone and talk to after 2 years and it's like you just talked yesterday! (Huh, Melissa!?! Hee, hee!) Melissa asked me if I would make baby shower invites for her cousin's 1st baby probably about 3-4 months ago...just planting the seed. Then we moved and now I have a craft room all set up for JUST this type of thing! So I busted out 21 invites this week, and mailed them all out on Thursday. I can't WAIT to get people's reactions to them! Like usual...pictures just don't do them justice, they are SOoOO much nicer in person when you can feel/touch them! The onsies are all cut out of patterned paper, the rectangles they are mounted on are embossed, that whole panel is up on pop-dots...nice twill ribbon (since it's a boy it makes it look more masculine and STILL lets me use ribbon!), the cute little chickie stamp set that Melissa picked out, and custom printed to match. Ahhhh....babies! They are the best! And when it's the first one, even BETTER! Welcome Baby Logan...I know everyone can't WAIT to meet you! :-)

    They are beautiful!!! I absolutley love the colors, the ribbon, the little chicks, everything! You are so talented - these are nicer than anything I have ever seen, and that they were hand-made for our little one means so much to me. Thank you, thank you so much for your time and willingness to create these for our baby, it has made this time even more special. We will have the invitation forever in his baby book.

    We can't wait for him to arrive!!

    Thank you again!
    Logan's Mom, Alison Jean :-)

    "Ditto" on all of the above from Logan's Nana Jean. Even Logans great grandma Jean thought the invitation was cute as a bug. Homemade is always the most thoughtful and loving gift.
    Thank You Very Much!

    You're VERY welcome! I'm glad that Melissa asked me to do them! I'm sure you'll have as much 'fun' with motherhood as all of us have! {Insert wicked laugh here when Alison gets no sleep!} Congratulations, hopefully Melissa will send me pictures! :-D
