Locally Grown Books for Baby Card

Ask your guests to bring a favorite children's book instead of a card with this Locally Grown books for baby card. A sage green gingham border frames a big playful sage "Books" title with a golden script "for baby", soft watercolor carrot, radish and mushrooms and a little bee. The short note asks each guest to bring a storybook and write a little message on the inside cover, so your little one grows up with a whole shelf of books full of love from family and friends. Gender neutral and sized to tuck behind your invitation, it is the perfect touch for a farmers market or garden baby shower. Edit the wording in Canva with a free account, then print at home or at a copy shop.

• 5 x 3.5 in books for baby card (landscape, single-sided), sized to slip in the envelope behind your 5 x 7 in invitation

What you can change
