Baby Shower Diaper Invitation

June 10, 2014 By: Leslie2 Comments

1-DIY Diaper baby shower invitations

I had my first experience with creating a DIY Diaper Invitation over a year ago for my sister’s baby shower.  Since we knew she was having a girl, we got to use very cute girly prints.  Recently, a friend of mine was planning a shower for her daughter who had a baby boy on the way.  She wanted to use the diaper invitations and was planning an animal themed shower, so I helped by creating the diaper-shaped invitations.  It was fun to use different paper.  I also realized in my previous blog post that I didn’t have many pictures in process, so I took a few of those to share in case you want to make your own diaper invitations.

I found a pack of zebra print paper in multiple colors, so I started with the green, but we ended up only using blue.  This paper was 8.5 x 11 and only had a print on one side, so it was different than the girl paper/invitations.  I used my old template, which has now been updated for easier printing and use. Download here.

I made the invitations in assembly line format.  I traced all of them on the paper.

Then, I cut all of them out.

The next step was cutting the scalloped edges on the flaps. And, then I sliced the two lines where the flaps tuck in.

I think you can see the scalloped detail better on the girl invitations.  The double-sided paper gives it a different contrast.

The inside of the girl invitation is shown in my previous post here.

For the inside of the baby boy invitations, I let my friend complete that part, but I gave an idea on language to tie it into the animal theme:
