Saturday, I had the great pleasure of spending the day at the Washington Duke Inn, in Durham, NC, with my good friend Tracey. Along with many more of her friends & family, we had an afternoon tea {slash} baby shower to celebrate her first born, coming the end of April.
I hosted along with 4 other lovely ladies. And! I got to design the invitations! Here were the contenders:
Can you see the jumping off points for my current Minted.com submissions? Voting is still open, btw.
The 5 of us unanimously decided the paisleys were the way to go {obvious from my first picture, right?}. They are very "Tracey." She's using them in the decor for the baby's room, along with a bright green that we brought into the invitation suite with Pop-Tone envelopes in Limeade. Ta-da!!
What invitation suite would be complete without Thank You cards? Not this one! I planned to suprise Tracey with a set of these in her shower gift, but like the fabulous friend that she is, she follows all my blogging & saw
my Posterous post about making cards on Feb 21st. So, I blew my own surprise. But no matter! She was thrilled anyway!
Congrats to Tracey & her husband John. We are all very excited to meet Baby Bailey!
