Dinosaur Invitations for a baby shower
If you're expecting a bouncing baby boy then you have come to the right place for great ideas to make your shower invitations.
This cute invitation was made with patterned scrapbooking paper that you can get from any scrapbooking store or craft store, solid colored cardstock and ribbon. The invitation wording is typed up and printed onto a card and inserted into a pocket. This is a great design for a generic dinosaur themed party as you can substitute any of the patterned papers for whatever you have available in your craft supplies or at your craft store

I got the basic idea from the October 2007 issue of Scrapbook Trends Cards Magazine. The patterned papers are all from the Basic Grey collection Archaic.
