This is the sixth (and, sadly, second-to-last) installment of this illustration samples series, and I have a lot to show off today. These are all animal-themed illustrations, which are fantastic for stationery for events for and about children - birthday parties, baby showers, and baby announcements. Of course, they're also great for events hosted by anyone who's a little more grown up - but still a kid at heart!
These ducks and baby birds are perfect for young children or baby showers. Anything cute and feathery!
Have a favorite animal? Perhaps your son loves amphibians and reptiles - why not have a frog-themed birthday party for him?
Baby animals or illustrations of animals that look more like plush stuffed toys than the real deal are also great options for baby shower invitations and baby announcements. How cute are these guys?
Or maybe you're really into mythology, culture, symbols, or art from a certain part of the world. Do you collect brass elephant figurines from India? Do you love to scuba dive and wish you lived closer to a coral reef? Or do you just love Chinese food and want to invite your friends to join you on your birthday at your favorite Chinese buffet? Illustrations of Dragons are awesome for Asian-themed events!
Of course, there are also animals that are specific for certain holidays. How can you host Thanksgiving dinner without the obligatory picture of a turkey (perhaps even in a stereotypical Pilgrim hat)? Or have the neighborhood over for an Easter egg hunt without including illustrations of adorable bunnies on your invitations?
And then there are insects, some of which have become common themes for parties in their own right, such as butterflies, ladybugs, or bumble bees. I have a bit of a phobia about bees myself, so I would never want to host a bee-themed party (even if it was super cute, like a gender-reveal baby shower I saw on a party blog that asked 'what will it bee?'), but even I have to admit illustrations of butterflies and ladybugs can be downright adorable.
Tomorrow - my absolute favorite illustrations! Plants!
