Baby Shower Invitations

Here is the finished product of the shower invitations I made last week. I like giving invitations in boxes. It is like getting a present. I printed the names of the the recipient on the outside and inside are the printed cards and some bright yellow Lemonheads. The back of the box has a little quote that I really like. I got some fun pictures of the assembly process below. It was like a sea of Lemonheads…

    lemon heads are my favorite candy— this is amazing and wonderful.

  • michelle says:

    I’m so spoiled Jordan. Now you have to get knocked-up so I can repay the favor.

  • Jamie Meares says:

    i don’t mean to be the dissenting voice at all! i’m just wondering — if they are mailed with the lemonheads, is there any worry that they’ll melt and stick to the invite and get messy?

  • jordan says:

    Lemonheads aren’t very perishable… I would have no qualms about mailing this invitation. Although to save on shipping I hand delivered most of them.

  • Ada Chef says:

    Wow. You are beyond awesome.

    I love lemonheads too.

  • erin says:

    Stunning! The lemonheads are beyond even Martha. Oh yes I said it.

    I would love to attend a shower like that! :) I’m sure the actual party is going to be just beautiful!

  • lynnly says:

    So beautiful! Quick question, what does the saying on the back read? [Just in case I wanted to totally copy your amazing idea! :) ]

  • Jill says:

    These invites are fantastic. I am so impressed!

    Spectacular.

  • robin k says:

    Absolutely gorgeous and original.

  • lolo says:

    Okay, I’m outting myself as a reader of this blog. I don’t even remember how I came across it, but I’m obsessed!

    The invites are beautiful, but the real reason I’m posting is to ask who makes the yellow cardigan you posted from MS Weddings. I looked at her site and wasn’t able to find anything.

    Anyway, this blog is in my top 5 things I read every a.m. Thanks, Jordan!

  • Abbynormal says:

  • Missy says:

    This invites are truly amazing. I can’t wait for your letterpress website to get going. Maybe you could put up pictures of past projects you have completed, like this one.

  • Queen Scarlett says:

    Wow! who needs Martha when they can have you. How lucky to be your friend… how lucky to learn from you!

  • Stephanie says:

    These are absolutely beautiful! I especially love the quote you put on the back. How do you come up with the amazing things you come up with?!
