If you are like many peo0le you can easily get stuck when it
comes to the baby shower invitation. Finding the location,
creating the guest lists and buying a cake can seem easy
compared to picking the right invitation. The baby shower
invitation will be the first impression that the guests will
have of the event. It is therefore important to convey a message
through the baby shower invitation. One really fun and very
popular way to do this is use a baby footprint in the
invitation. It is hard to resist the charm of a tiny little baby
footprint. Baby shower invitations with a footprint are so
irresistible be will just have to come to the shower.
So here are some creative ideas that you can use in creating
your own baby shower footprint invitation.
1. Printed - A simple printed baby footprint can be a ton of
fun. You can use a silhouette of a

baby footprint to make the
design. This will show the heel, toes and side of the foot. It
will look as if a baby stepped in ink and then stamped the card
with their feet. You can find clip art online by searching, use
a stamp, use a real baby or even just freehand draw your own.
To put a little action into the baby shower footprint invitation
you can make a series of footprints and make them decrease in
size from large to smaller. This will give the illusion that the
person leaving the prints is walking into the card. This is a
great way to draw the attention of the viewer into the card and
then place your important text information right above this.
2. Stamps - Stamping has become a very popular craft and is use
widely among printers and crafters in the business of making
invitations. You can easily purchase baby footprint stamps of
varying

sizes from your local craft store or on the Internet.
These can make a fun and fancy decoration to the invitation.
There are so many things you can do by varying the colors, size
of the stamp and the paper the possibilities are really endless.
For example pick a cute pink (for girls) or a blue (for boys)
ink pad and stamp a tiny border made up of footprints all around
the invitation. Don't worry to much about making them all
straight or in line just have fun and stamp at random. This will
give the invitation a light fun feeling.
As an alternative you can purchase a large stamp and simply
stamp a big filled in silhouetted image smack dab in the middle
of the invitation. Then you can creatively with fun colored pens
write all around the footprint following the outline of it. This
makes another fun creative and even whimsical

invitation.
3. Embossing - This is where the baby footprint is raised from
the page. There are two types of embossing. The first is by
using a professional printer and paying to have the cards done.
A printer can actually emboss the paper and have a raised
footprint right in the paper. A baby footprint embossed onto a
beautifully textured pure white piece of paper can look very
elegant!
If you are the do it yourself type it is very easy to purchase
an embossing powder in stamping or craft store. These come in
all kinds of fun colors but often gold or silver embossing
powder can look very elegant! With embossing powder you will
need a stamp and some ink. You start by stamping the invitation
with the baby footprint stamp first. Then before the ink dries
you poor some of the embossing powder on the stamped area. The
embossing powder will stick

tot he wet ink. You can then hold
the piece of paper over a light bulb or use an embossing gun to
heat the powder. Once it gets hot it will melt and adhere to the
paper. This makes a fun and easy way to have a very elegant gold
embossed baby footprint shower invitation.
4. Cut Out - With this technique you will want to find some
stiff paper. Then you will pencil in an outline of a baby
footprint and cut it out. You can also make a simple stencil
suing a file folder and then quickly trace around the stencil
and cut out to speed up the process and make the results more
uniform. Then on the baby of the cut out footprint you can write
all of your important baby shower details. Where it will take
place, RSVP information and so forth.
Either way that you choose the important thing to remember is to
have fun in creating the baby shower invitation

footprint. Get
some friends to help you if you plan on making your own
invitations as this will speed up the entire process. It can
also be more fun with a group of girlfriends around a table
talking and having a good time then cutting 25 baby shower
footprint invitations all by yourself.
As an addition to the fun, baby shower footprint invitation, it
can be lots of fun to continue with the footprint theme in
decorating for the part. You can use the same stamps and
decorations that you used on the invitation in other places to
decorate for the shower.
