A santa baby baby shower theme gives you the whole party in two words, and the invitation is the fastest way to set it. Everything here comes from one collection, so the details card and thank you notes will match whichever you send.
Four ways to do it: hand-drawn doodles on cream, the same thing in pink, red with green, and soft watercolor. Pick the colour you have already settled on and work outwards from there.
Santa Baby Baby Shower Theme
The core of the theme. Hand-drawn script, a little santa hat, doodle frames and bows, all in red on cream. These are the ones that suit almost any December table.
Santa Baby Hat Red Doodle Christmas
The one to send if you want the theme recognised the second the envelope opens. It suits a shower at home with a tree in the corner and nothing more elaborate than that.
Shop this invitation →Santa Baby Hand Drawn Red Bows Christmas
Bows instead of a hat, which keeps it festive without leaning on Santa. A good middle option when some guests want Christmas and others just want a winter shower.
Shop this invitation →Santa Baby Deep Red Bows Doodle
The richest red in the group, which reads as a little more formal. Choose it for an evening shower or one being held somewhere other than a living room.
Shop this invitation →Pink Santa Baby Shower Ideas
The same doodle style turned pink. These are the ones to look at if you are expecting a girl, or if the shower is leaning coquette rather than traditional Christmas.
Pink Santa Baby Hat Doodle Christmas
Still clearly Santa Baby, just warmer. It gives you an easy colour cue for the rest of the party: pink balloons, red ribbon, nothing more complicated.
Shop this invitation →Pink Santa Baby Red Doodle Christmas
The quieter of the two pinks. Worth choosing if you want the shower to feel girly first and Christmas second, or if the mother-to-be is not a Santa person.
Shop this invitation →Red and Green Santa Baby Shower Ideas
Traditional Christmas colours with the same hand-drawn feel. Pick from here if the party is happening around the tree and the decorations are already red and green.
Santa Baby Red Bows Doodle Christmas
The simplest of the red and greens, so it does not fight with a decorated room. Send this one when the house is already doing the heavy lifting.
Shop this invitation →Santa Baby Christmas Tree Teddy
The teddy keeps this one firmly a baby shower rather than a Christmas party, which matters if you are inviting colleagues or neighbours who might otherwise turn up with wine.
Shop this invitation →Santa Baby Modern Christmas Doodle
Plenty to look at, which works when the guest list is big and the invitation needs to survive a crowded fridge door. Also the easiest to build a games-and-prizes party around.
Shop this invitation →Watercolor Santa Baby Shower Invitations
Softer and more grown-up, with painted greenery, poinsettia and a little line of baby clothes. These suit a shower where the invitation is meant to feel like a keepsake.
Winter Christmas Clothesline Santa Baby
The most restrained of the watercolors, and the one that still looks right if the shower slips into January. Good for a lunch out rather than a party at home.
Shop this invitation →Christmas Red Green Clothesline Santa Baby
Full Christmas colour in a softer finish. The clothesline stays gender-neutral, so this is a safe send when the sex is still a secret but the date is firmly in December.
Shop this invitation →Christmas Red Clothesline Girl Santa Baby
A little dress on the line instead of a sleepsuit, so it announces a girl without a word of text doing it. Pairs well with a pink and green table.
Shop this invitation →Christmas Floral Red Dress Girl Santa Baby
The dressiest invitation here, and the one to choose if the shower is the big family event of the season. It sets expectations for something more than tea and cake.
Shop this invitation →December weekends book up early, so send these sooner than you would for a summer shower. Six weeks ahead gives guests room to plan around work parties, school dates and travel. Four weeks is the minimum if the shower lands in the last fortnight of December.
