    I am having limited involvement in the planning of my baby shower, but since I'm in the event industry, some things my family has asked me to handle. One of them being the invites. I was told I'm having a bee themed baby shower. 

    I've picked the following invites. Which one do you like?

    Tough choice between #1 and #2!   Not as much a fan of the third one but the first two are just darling - love them!

    @Ree723:  The only reason why I considered #3, my least favorite, is I know my sister in law bought a ton of burlap for his. So I think it's a rustic bee theme maybe? LOL I'm full of speculation.

    I'm torn between 1 and 2. 1 is super sweet, I love the colors and pattern. Then I love how clean 2 looks and think the text and bee graphic is the cutest, I just wonder if maybe it could use a little more detail, maybe a subtle border or something?

    Either way you'll have yourself a super cute invite!

    I like #2 best for it's simplicity, and then #1 second.... I get the want for the 3rd one b/c of the brown color scheme w/ the possible burlap so how bout something like this one?... Especially since you haven't revealed the baby's gender yet!

    I really like #1.  I would probably vote for #2 by my personal taste, but #1 is just so sweet and baby-shower-ish.

    I like #2 the best from a purely design aspect. #1 is ok, but pretty busy. Something to keep in mind with Etsy, though, is that quality of printing can vary wildly from seller to seller. Is the seller printing on a home printer or going to Kinko's? Or will it be printed at a professional print shop? How heavy will the paper be? Will it be matte finish?

    The answers to these questions would make a big difference to me, personally. I have ordered from Tiny Prints before and think their stock is of very good quality. Vistaprint leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to paper stock and color reproduction. (FYI, in case I sound snobby about this - I work in design and deal with professional printers everyday. So I guess I'm particularly picky about this sort of thing!)

    i like #2 for its clean design, but that's more my aestetic.
