Turtle themed baby showers or children’s birthday parties

A customer recently ordered bookmark favors for a Turtle themed baby shower using our Polka Dots design as a backdrop and requesting the addition of a cute turtle fitting for a baby shower.  Green was the color of choice, but we could’ve created the design in any color scheme, such as pink and green or light blue and green.

If you'd like to order this adorable turtle design, we can add the turtle to our Polka Dots design and create your turtle themed favors in any color scheme you would like.

We found some really cute ideas for decorations, cakes and cookies to go along with a Turtle theme baby shower or child’s birthday party, starting with these adorable turtle cupcakes from Sweetopia along with instructions on how to make them yourself:

We also loved this pink & green turtle cake and matching cookies from the image gallery at Cake Central where readers can upload photos of their own homemade masterpieces and give tips on how to make it yourself:

And finally, we want to link you to two different blogs featuring actual photos from Lilly Pulitzer themed parties:  A Lilly Pulitzer Baby Shower from GreyGrey Designs, and a Preppy Green & Pink Lilly Pulitzer Inspired Birthday Party from Baby Lifestyles. There are some outstanding decoration and cake ideas on both.

 

More customized bookmark examples for religious events

Two customers recently ordered bookmarks to commemorate two anniversaries: the anniversary of a church, and the Golden Jubilee anniversary of a priest:

Both were accomplished very easily. On the left, we added the praying hands to our Classic border bookmark design, and on the right, we customized our Gold Cross design. Both customers chose our Deluxe Regular tasseled bookmark for these special occasion keepsakes.

If you’re looking for some incredible cake ideas for the congregation’s celebration, how about this bible cake complete with praying hands from Coolest Birthday Cakes:

Chalice & Wheat design for First Eucharist Communion Favors

Our Communion Cross bookmark design got a makeover just in time for spring orders. We’ve talked about this popular design here back in 2009, but this best-selling design has a fresh new look with its updated border, so we wanted to feature it again.

As always, these bookmarks are available in any color and can be printed with any text, both front and back.  When you opt to include a photo on the front, the pretty gold cross is moved to the backside along with your desired text.  Text could be a pretty prayer or poem, a scripture passage, or a simple thank you.

We love the exclusive First Communion party supplies at Catholic Supply to go along with your bookmark favors. You’ll find an assortment of paper products, balloons, tablecloths, and favor boxes to complete your child’s First Eucharist celebration day.

The Ivy bookmark design: perfect for wedding favors

 

Ivy, the symbol of longevity, wedded love, fidelity, friendship and affection, has had significance throughout history, so it would make sense that our Ivy Design bookmark can make the perfect customized favor for a wedding. An engaged couple recently ordered the design and opted to have their photo included (shown left). They excerpted a poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (linked searchable database of Longfellow poems) for the text on the back of their elegant wedding momentoes:

Ah, how skillful
grows the hand

That obeyeth
Love’s command!

It is the heart,
and not the brain,

That to the highest
doth attain,

And he who followeth
Love’s behest

Far excelleth
all the Rest!

~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

 

Think spring…

 

A year-end garden club celebration was the reason why our customer ordered our “I Love Gardening” bookmark in our cute mini size (1-3/8″ x 5-1/2″). With winter about to bear down on us, we thought we’d feature this design as a reminder that spring is just around the corner.

Because our bookmarks are made-to-order, the “I Love Gardening” wording on this bookmark can be completely removed or replaced with other text.  The design would be lovely for spring teas and luncheons, bridal shower favors or events at botanical gardens.

 

A gift for teachers only another teacher could give

 

The text is entirely up to you when you order bookmarks at Impressive Inscriptions.

We really got a laugh out of the text this customer provided on her recent order of our Little Red Schoolhouse bookmark design, which we assume were Christmas holiday gifts to fellow teachers given the nature of the text: “Peace on earth? I’d settle for peace in the classroom.”

We love it when our customers come up with clever and original text for their bookmark orders and use them in unanticipated ways. In fact, the idea that customers could go to a website, pick a design, and easily have it personalized with any text whatsoever was what our business was built on nearly 10 years ago, and we enjoy seeing the clever ways our customers use our bookmarks for gifts and keepsakes for every occasion imaginable.

Happy New Year to you and yours from your friends at Impressive Inscriptions!
