Putting on a baby shower for our friend Jenn’s twin boys was a team event. I was in charge of the favors, banner, and various food. Since she decorated the nursery in blues and greens, I knew I was going to use Close to My Heart’s Stardust paper pack.
Favors:
I wrapped Hershey nuggets in coordinating paper and tucked them in clear bags. Then just decorated the cardstock with CTMH’s new birthday banner stamp set and the “Believe in Your Dreams” stamp set that coordinates with the Stardust paper.
Because “twins” wouldn’t fit across the top, I popped up every other letter so that I could more easily tuck them behind each other.
They may be baby boys, but I added just a tad prisma glitter and sparkles that aren’t showing up.
Here’s the banner:
It’s my first and I gave it a shot. The triangles are 5” across at the top and 9” long. If I were to do it again, I’d make them 6” across and 8” long.
I got the idea to use cupcakes papers on the banner from a scrapbook store in Virginia Beach. You can’t really see it, but I sprayed each one with aerosol adhesive and sprinkled fine glitter. It added a nice touch.
