Guest book idea for a baby shower

July 27, 2011 By Jamie Dorobek 8 Comments

I threw one of my besties a beach inspired baby shower, and instead of doing a typical sign in book, I used these free printable mom to be cards made by a very talented blogger friend, Grace if Overrated. I first starting using her journal pages with my high school advisory class. They are not your average journal pages, they are beautifully designed and clever. She has 43 free journal pages that you can just print right out!

Basically, I begged Grace to create a mom to be journal page that would take the place of a guest book. Thankfully, she said yes! I ended up with this adorable, little note card that guests can fill out and color in as they please. Then, I hole punched the corner of the cards and tied them with a ribbon so Natalia has a little mini guest book of best wishes and predictions for sweet baby Joyce.

How to download the free printable guest book card

Here’s how it worked, I used my free tin buckets I found on the side of the road and adorned them with crepe paper flowers and twine. I filled one of the buckets with tons of colored, sparkly gel pens, one bucket held the blank guest cards, and one little bucket held the finished cards. The free tin buckets needed a little love…

 
 
 

It was a fun activity and conversation starter to have out while people were eating and mingling. Plus, who doesn’t love writing in sparkly gel pens?! At the end, you can hole punch the corner of the cards and tie them together with string. A fancy little book of love notes for the mom to be!

    I'm with Jenna Z – Is she planning on releasing these? Or is there somewhere I can go to order them? A friend of mine stood up just before Thanksgiving dinner to announce that she's pregnant, and I would *love* to have these for her eventual baby shower.

    Just have to ask where they got Joyce from? I'm a Joyce and 28 and most other Joyce's were names from family. Just curious! Tell her I LOVE the name! 🙂 Also, I love your blog!
