Sports Baby Shower-Ticket Invites

July 13, 2009 By Michelle Barneck 6 Comments

Remember how I said I was hosting a baby shower? Well, it was this past week and went off without a hitch. Yay! The shower was for a little boy and after seeing a sneak preview of the nursery (done in sports), I decided to do an All Star baby shower theme. There is SO much you can do with this theme that it was hard to decide! I had a ton of fun with it, which is why there is way to much to pack in to one post. So we will be doing a series! The next couple of weeks will be chuck full of All Star Baby shower ideas. Let’s start out with the thing you will need very first, invites!

I really wanted to capture the essence of the theme right form the beginning and what better way to invite people to a sports shower than with a ticket?! I thought I might have to design it myself, but it turns out that there are tons of free templates out there! I found this one on Microsoft Publisher (they have tons of ticket templates to choose from!) through a google search. It was unbelievably perfect for my needs. I love the blue/brown color scheme especially since it matches the nursery so well!

So here is an example of the finished product (with names and addys altered for obvious reasons). Sorry the writing is so tiny!

I kept the text with the theme listing my house as a stadium, the parents as MVPs, etc.

When you do it in the actual template there are four tickets to a page. I just printed them on white card stock, used my paper cutter and voila! This was a church ward/neighborhood shower, so I just hand delivered all the invites.

    Thank you for this post. I am hosting a sports themed baby shower as well and I hated the ones I’ve been able to find on the internet. I am glad to have run across this one. It’s much nicer and will probably be cheaper and purchasing them from a printer. Thanks again

    Oh I do have a question. What kind of envelopes did you use? Did you buy any special (“irregular”) sizes? What else did you include in the envelope?

    This was a neighborhood shower so I did not use envelopes. I just delivered them by hand.

    Thank you so much. Is there a way for me to post mine so you can see what you have inspired me to do? Or maybe I can email it to you. Thanks for responding to me and thank you for this post. It has helped me soooo much.

    I just added a page for people to add projects they have done that were inspired by A Little Tipsy. I would love to have you link up your invite! http://www.alittletipsy.com/p/inspired-by-little-tipsy.html
