baby shower...

My good college friend is having a baby and some of us are helping out with different parts of the baby shower.  My good friend A and I are in charge of the decorations and party favors.  There will be 70 people there, it's a co ed baby shower and he has a gazillion cousins, uncles, and aunts.  So we are going to be on a budget :)  We were thinking

If you click on my "party" tag - you should find some pics for other baby showers I've thrown. Let me know if you need any help with anything!

I made all my diaper cakes with disposable diapers - never even thought of cloth! Only thing is that it took my over 100 diapers per cake, so that could get pricey!

i didn't realize a diaper cake took 100 diapers! yikes!

can i ask you how you made the labels for your favor and where did you get the the Ohhh baby invites or did you make that too? someone else did the invites for this shower, but i have another shower and would love to copy you :)
i love the shower you threw for your friend in pasadena!

thanks for all the ideas!!!!

Well, not all of them take 100 diapers - you can make them with less...but all the ones that I've made (which are pretty big) required that many. I've seen ones with less and they're just smaller.

I made the invites - but it was a printable invite. I bought the paper here - http://www.polkadotdesign.com/catalog/Bonnie_Marcus_Collection/BSP-IGI and then designed the wording on my own at home and printed them on my home printer.

Labels - I designed using powerpoint and then I printed onto label sheet paper (self adhesive) and cut.
