Default Poll: girl baby shower colors? HELP!
I'm making baby shower invites for my niece...I'm really stuck on colors--i'm torn really between pretty in pink and chocolate chip or pretty in pink and certainly celery...or maybe something else i did'nt consider if it looks nice.

So what do you think? I'm letting you guys decide since you've never steered me wrong before!

I love chocolate chip with pink. Maybe partially because I love chocolate...;) but you could make great invites with that combo!

I really like Pretty in Pink with Going Gray. I haven't yet tried it with Basic Gray as I don't have that color...yet. Here's a card I made with these colors...oh yeah...it has Regal Rose too.

I voted for Chocolate Chip, but I think all three colors would look fabulous together!

I really love chocolate chip with pretty in pink, but I voted for celery. I think chocolate chip would look fabulous if you are doing more classic and non cutesy invites. But since the majority of baby stamps and shower stamps are more cutesy I think celery would be better for a more lighthearted feel.

Good luck!

Ok, even though I voted Chocolate Chip, my fave is really Soft Sky, Groovy Guava (which can be subbed for Pretty in Pink) & Certainly Celery. Good luck!

I voted for chocolate chip, but then right now I'm wanting some chocolate! Why not do as someone suggested and use all three?!

I would use all three - chocolate chip, pink, and celery - with the emphasis on pink!

I just finished baby shower invites using Pretty In Pink and Old Olive. I wanted certainly celery or barely banana but I was out :(

I'll upload the pictures after lunch.

Pretty in pink and wild wasabi - I have a card in my gallery (should be newest one) with that color combo...

How about all three? I think Pretty in Pink, Certain Celery and Choclate Chip would be great together.

I would go with certainly celery--it is such a fresh look. Chocolate Chip is lovely, I use it a lot, but it seems more sophisticated and grown up to me, while pink and green is springtime and fun, girly and cute--perfect for a baby girl!

Okay, after considering all of your input, i've decided to make the shower invites with pretty in pink and certainly celery, which is baby-like and then give my niece some thank you notes that are done with all three since that combo just seems more grown up. I do love pink and brown together, but for some reason that certainly celery just jumped out at me...

Thanks so much for all your suggestions...you guys are the best.

I dont know, I love the chocolate and pink, however I think celery would be more appropriate for a baby shower. Just me. :-)

I love pink and brown, but for a baby girl invite, I would go with pink & celery or pink and so saffron.
