Over the Christmas holidays I saw my dear friends Mark and Sonya who were expecting their first child in March. I wanted to make them a keepsake for the baby and offer to make their shower invitations since my family was co-hosting the event. They were very excited and showed me a picture of their bedding. I wanted to keep the design of the invitations and the frame as similar as possible, but change them enough to avoid copying exactly. We were all very happy with the results. After making the invitations and the keepsake frame, I also designed and created a "Welcome Baby" banner and table decorations. (Thanks mom for your help!) I was REALLY excited when I was able to get the Silhouette to cut out the designs I had created. Here are a few pictures of my project. Enjoy!
