Cute Baby Shower Decor


Hi, this is Demita, mom2sidsquid on the CMB. Today I'm sharing a banner and diaper wreath made for a co-worker's baby shower.

The Wreath is 9" and was purchased at Hobby Lobby. It's covered with size 2 pampers. I cut the banner and layer from Something to Celebrate at 3.5" in CCR. It's a boy is cut at 2" from Cricut Alphabet Font 1 out of vinyl. Wrapped with twine and added gems to each end. I used beacon 3-1 adhesive to adhere it to the diapers.


Easton (funny she's the 2nd co-worker to name her son Easton) was made using 3" circles from Cricut Craftroom Basics and the letters were cut from the Cricut Craftroom Basics at 2". The elements added to the name were taken from an OLD baby boy scrapbooking kit I had.
 
The Banner was made using Pretty Pennants at 6". I used the Stork (Banner 4).
 
 
I flipped the bottom banner. The Letter Banners were also cut at 6" (scalloped Banner and top). Each Rosette was made from six 4.25" rosettes (Ribbon & Rosettes Cartridge). I glued them with Beacon 3n1 adhesive to 4" circles. The letters were cut at 3.5" from Birthday Bash. I used Baby Steps at 2.5" relative size for the remaining diecuts. Crinkle Ribbon was used to hide the jump rings that connected the banners together.
 
Here are some close ups of each banner piece
