I was asked by my sweet mother-in-law to make a diaper cake for a baby shower. I, of coarse, was excited to do so. I had made one before and was excited to improve on some of my ideas. My mother-in-law helped out a ton by paying for a lot of the stuff. I am super happy with how it turned out and it was a hit at the shower.
I of coarse had to add some cute paper cut outs.
Lots of cute fabric and ribbon were involved.
Add some cute baby essentials that make it cute and decorative. I used baby wash clothes for some rolled roses. CUTE!!! I know you love those little boot slippers too huh?
I am really happy with how it turned out! I love the colors and everything.
Matching card! Wa-Hoo!
Cute huh? I really enjoy making diaper cakes because the end result is always so cute! I urge each of you to try one when you have a baby shower. You will not regret it!
