By Jane OBaillie
Baby showers are powerful and emotional events that will leave you with unforgettable memories to look back on for the rest of your life, so you want to make them as special as possible. One great way to do so is with a baby shower footprint invitation! Your guests will swoon over how cute it is, and it will be a keepsake you can even share with the child when he or she gets older! The baby footprint is a universal sign of a newborn baby that's sure to catch people's attention.
Most likely if you're having a baby shower, the baby will yet to have been born, so you will have to settle for a drawing, or the footprint of someone else's baby. If this isn't your first child, a very special thing to do is to use one of your other children's footprints - or you can even use your own from when you were a baby! If those are unavailable, you may wish to use the footprints of a sibling or parent. Imagine the honor when you tell them the footprints on the invitations are theirs!
By using a digital scan of the footprints, you can simply crop around them in a photo editing program. Then just paste those onto your invitations and print them out for the perfect baby shower footprint invitation!
You can also make the invitations without a digital scanner or software if that's easier for you. Just go to an office supply store or printing store that makes copies. First, make a copy of the footprints so you don't have to damage the original. Then, with a pair of scissors, crop around the footprints so they are free with no border around them. Now, you can make your baby shower footprint invitation on another piece of paper, either by hand, or by printing them out on the computer. Simply
