Grab the blue confetti and balloons. A baby boy shower offers lots of possibilities when it comes to decor and party ideas.

Grab the blue confetti and balloons. A baby boy shower offers lots of possibilities when it comes to decor and party ideas. The invitations are one of the first steps in getting ready for the baby shower. A little craftiness goes a long way in creating one-of-a-kind shower invitations for the guests.

 

Step 1

Determine the theme for the shower.

Step 2

Determine the type of shower invitations you want to design. Traditional invitations are square or rectangular cards with the party details printed on them. For a twist on tradition, create invitations that are cut into a baby-related shape. Another modern idea is to send a 3-D invitation, such as a cloth diaper or baby rattle with the details attached.

Step 3

Choose the material for the card background. Card stock is a durable option that is easy to work with and comes in many colors and patterns.

Step 4

Decide on the details of the invitation. If you plan to make a shaped invitation, choose which baby-related shape. Ideas include a diaper, baby rattle, bootie or bib. Consider the embellishments to make the baby shower invitations stand out, such as ribbons, stickers or baby pins.

Step 5

Develop the wording of the invitation. Keep it fun and creative, incorporating the theme if possible. Rhyming is also a common component for baby shower invitation wording. Decide if you will hand write the wording or print it on a computer.

Step 6

Add the party details to the invitations. Include the date, time, location, RSVP information and other relevant details.

Warnings

  • Invitations that go beyond the traditional card style will likely require more than a first-class postage stamp to mail. The exact cost depends on the size and embellishments added. Create a sample invitation, place it in appropriate packaging and take it to the post office to find out how much it will cost to send.
