Adorable Baby Shower Invitations and Birth Announcements from Tiny Prints + One Reader Wins a $50 Tiny Prints Gift Certificate!

I'm so excited to be hosting a baby shower party for one of my closest friends this August. Which was also why I was extra thrilled when Tiny Prints - a premium online stationery brand- contacted me to host this fun review post and giveaway!

My girlfriend is having a baby boy and I am debating whether I will do an Owl-themed or a Hawaiian/Luau- themed baby shower party for her. We moved into our new house about three months ago and my invited friends are all excited about our swimming pool. So I was thinking, a pool party after the baby shower... how fun! Although, the Owl theme is really super adorable too! Ahhh.. decisions, decisions. :)

I have ordered Tiny Prints Baby Shower Invitations before and many other personalized greeting cards at Tiny Prints and I have always been very satisfied with their designs, service and prompt delivery. I love the many beautiful trend-forward designs they offer, not the cookie cutter type ones you usually find in other card companies. Check out the Tiny Prints Birth Announcements section too! I'm sure you will love what you'll find for the special new baby in your life!

Tiny Prints carries a wide variety of unique baby shower invitations and birth announcements and I also love the fact that I can choose a matching address label, thank you card & gift tag to go along with my chosen design. The price points aren't bad either and if you avail of the many discounts they offer, you can save even more on these stationery and card items from Tiny Prints!

Also, I'd like to mention that there will be a Tiny Prints Pinning Party over at Resourceful Mommy blog on Thursday, May 30^that 8 PM ET. And because it’s a Pinning Party, you’ll have the chance to win great prizes leading up to the Twitter Party portion of the event. What's neat, you don't have to pin on Pinterest to participate or win. You can RSVP for this party here.

Rosy shades are not only classic, but they also look good on everyone. Click ahead to see the prettiest picks that will outlive an actual bouquet by months -- if not years.
