Dr. Seuss Baby Shower

A Friend and I hosted a baby shower for my best friend Rosie.  She is decorating the nursery with Dr. Seuss so we made that our theme.  

These cupcakes were my favorite of the shower.  I found a Horton on the Internet, 
printed them in black and white, used a scallop circle punch to cut them out and mounted them to black card stock circles I cut on my Cricut.  For the fuzzy toppers I used mini feather boa and hot glue small portions to the top of a skewer.  They left a big fuzzy mess so beware.


Red and aqua poms in different sizes.



At Michael's I found Dr. Seuss alphabet flashcards and my friend Annette used them to make a garland.  I brought Dr. Seuss books from home.


I tried to make an invitation for Rosie's shower but I couldn't find a Dr. Seuss to put on the invitation and my photoshop skills are just not quite that advanced.  Thank you Etsy!  This invitation is from Etsy seller Photo Designz.  All I had to do was send her the info and she whipped them up and sent them to me quick.  Using photoshop I added the black and Turquoise border around the invitation.  I printed them through Costco using their photo card option.


I made these "Wishes for Baby" card and printed them at FedEx Office. They looked professionally printed.  I would definitely use their services again.


It was a fun shower and I can't wait to meet Baby Alex!
