Vera's Baby Shower

When my friend Vera was having a November baby, a group of friends and I planned a Halloween-themed baby shower for her that also doubled as a little Halloween party for our kids. Invitations were sent via Facebook event, so I created a cover image for the event. I had so much fun turning a simple witch graphic into a babywearing witch, see the little green baby??

Then I created and printed a welcome sign for the front door. Can you see the little baby’s crib in a window of the castle?

Lastly, I made these little “wishes” cards for Vera to have as a keepsake.

I love making these custom "wishes for baby” cards. They can be such a wonderful keepsake for new parents to go back and read when their baby is older.

Halloween Cootie Catcher

Last year I created this Halloween-themed cootie catcher and I put it up on Mama Say What?! as a free download. It's also for sale in my Etsy shop for a few bucks, but if you're a follower of Mama Say What?!, then you know where you can get it for free. 

I wanted to go a little more colorful than the standard black and orange usually associated with Halloween, and I love to find excuses to use purple where I can.

My seven-year-old was happy to play with it so I could snap a few photos. He's asked if I can create one for his birthday that showcases all of his favorite things. I might just have to do that!
