    It's easy to make a large baby shower welcome sign with just a few supplies and a Cricut machine! Impress your guests with a sign that goes perfectly with your baby shower theme! 

    DIY Baby Shower Sign that says 'Your Story is Just Beginning' with book baby shower decorations.

    I recently got to plan a baby shower and I chose a book theme - because we love books around here! I made this large welcome sign to fit the baby shower theme and it was so easy. It went along perfectly with the mini book baby shower decorations that I made for the party. I wanted to share this tutorial too, so that you can make one too if you want to!

    I used my Cricut machine to cut the letters out - this is actually a perfect beginner Cricut project. Check out all of our Cricut projects or view all of our baby shower ideas!

    Note: If you don't have a Cricut machine, you can still make this project, you will just need to cut letters out another way. 

    DIY Baby Shower Sign 

    Equipment: 

    • Cricut Machine
    • LightGrip Mat
    • Hot Glue Gun
    • Craft Knife

    Supplies:

    • 17" x 23" White Board
    • 2 Basswood Strips (0.13 x 0.25 x 24-inches each)
    • Card Stock
    • Glue Stick
    Steps to make a large baby shower sign using card stock, a craft knife, bass wood and a dry-erase white board.

    How to Make a Large Sign

    1. Cut card stock to fit the whiteboard and cover the whiteboard with the cardstock pieces. 
    2. Measure basswood strips and trim them to fit on the board with a craft knife.
    3. Clean up the edges of the cut basswood for a clean look. 
    4. Hot glue basswood strips onto the cardstock-covered board.

    Your board should look something like this. Now it's time to cut the letters and finish the sign. 

    How to Assemble a Large Baby Shower Sign

    Step by step collage - cutting letters out of brown card stock on a Cricut machine, arranging the letters on a board, and gluing letters onto the sign.
    1. In Cricut Design Space, type your phrase and size the letters to how big you want to cut them. Put cardstock on a lightgrip mat and follow the prompts in DS to cut the paper. 
    2. Remove letters from the mat and repeat the process til you have all of your letters cut out. 
    3. Arrange the letters on the sign.
    4. Use a glue stick to adhere the letters to the cardstock backing. 

    Ta DA!
