Ask a representative at the store if there is a dedicated section for baby-themed items. Peruse the items the store has to offer. Work inside of your theme or color scheme to help narrow your options and keep you from becoming overwhelmed.  Select different colors or textures of cardstock to be the base of your invitation. Then, look for any additional items you want to use to decorate it, like stickers, stamps, or ribbon. To make the shopping process easier, outline or sketch a rough drawing of what you would like the invitation to look like. Note what colors you want each piece or layer to be. Then, ask for a representative in the store to help you locate items to match the sketch. Create layers using patterned, textured, and solid colored cardstock. Choose colors and patterns of cardstock that will reflect the theme of the baby shower.  Take a decorative piece of cardstock and cut it into a 5 by 7 in (13 by 18 cm) rectangle. This will make a standard-sized invitation. Layer the decorative cardstock with a matching piece that is a solid color. Make the length and width of the top layer about 1⁄2–1 in (1.3–2.5 cm) smaller than the bottom layer. Add some texture to the edging of each piece of the cardstock by trimming it with decorative scissors. Bring the invitation to life by including 1 or 2 personal photos. This is a great alternative to using stock photos or simple clipart images. Use a picture of the most recent sonogram or even pictures from any maternity photoshoots that were done. For example, simply print a copy of the photo you want to use and display it alongside the invitation information on a piece of cardstock.
