This past weekend our Sunday School class had a baby shower/fellowship by the pool. We had a cookout and let the kids swim. I didn't want the typical formal guestbook, so I found a few ideas on
Pinterest that got me started. All the guests were bringing children's books for gifts, so I thought bookmarks were the way to go!
 |
| These were my supplies: Tiny punch, paper cutter, Behr paint chips (I chose the lilac/lavender colors since that is what the baby's room will be decorated in.), ribbon, card stock and glue stick. |
 |
| I cut the paint chips so that you could not see any of the writing. (These extra-large paint chips worked great!) |
 |
| I had lots of fun with the punches. Some of the bookmarks I punched into the paint chips, and the others I glued the punches onto them. I put card stock on the back to give it more weight (and to cover up the writing). I put a hole punch in the top and added the ribbon. I put them all in a basket and the guests signed them. |
I hope baby and family will enjoy their keepsake bookmarks for years to come!
