Make Your Own Baby Shower Invitations

Invite Ideas and Poem and Wording Examples

Add a special touch to your baby shower invitations by making them yourself.

There are so many cute graphics and fonts available on the web for personal use at no charge these days.  And do forget your own adorable photos can be crafted into some memorable one of a kind invitations.

Take some time to play with design ideas. Add a special poem or just the specifics of the party. You just might surprise yourself. 

The invitation below was inspired by a beautiful baby shower poem by Joanna Fuchs from poemsource.com. Joanna has several poems that are perfect for baby shower invitations.

See more adorable baby poems by Joanna Fuchs at her Poem Source site and be sure to drop her a note of thanks.

For an extra special touch sign the poem with... 

Baby (last name of baby) 

I'll soon be here to meet you!

I've got lots of fun to share,

And now here's a baby shower

To help my mom prepare.


So come and join the party,

With friends and family,

To anticipate the arrival

Of her baby--Hey, that's me!

Baby Girl
Shower Invitation Wording

You're invited to a shower

For a newborn baby girl

She's pink and soft and beautiful

With tiny little curls


She smells as sweet as honey

And she coos and smiles with glee

So please come out and meet her

Cause we're sure that you'll agree

Baby Boy
Shower Invitation Wording

You're invited to a shower

For a newborn baby boy

His smile is so contagious

And he fills our hearts with joy


He smells as pure as heaven

There's a twinkle in his eye

We'd love for you to meet him

He is such a cutie-pie
