Pea in a Pod

Everyone that knows me well, knows I absolutely love the creative element of party planning. I was super excited when I got the chance to plan a baby shower for my friend Maiya. She's expecting her bundle of joy any day now. I debated on the shower theme until I had an "inspired" moment as I was falling asleep one night. Her favorite color is green and she loves animal print. Here's a sneak peek of a baby shower.

The photo that inspired it all:


The invitation is an important element of setting the tone for your event. I ran across this super cute bedding photo that I used to in *spire me while working thru the event theme.
I knew her favorite color was green and she absolutely loved animal print. I pondered over how I was going to tie those two together. I sent over my inspiration elements over to the ultimate party chick Rebecca at Fresh Chick Designs. Did I mention how amaaaazing Rebecca is?

After a few edits here's the super cute invite I settled on:

Are you inspired yet? If not, here's another photo that got my creative juices flowing as I developed key elements of the party theme.  I found myself admiring the cupcake instead of devouring it!

I will be sure to share a few photos from the shower. Stay tuned!
