Tropical Baby Shower Invitation
For a Tropical themed baby shower, we should include exotic flowers such as hibiscus, plumeria, or orchid in the invitation design. Choose a color palette that complements the overall theme.

“Island of Love, Ocean of Joy”: Play with the imagery of islands and oceans to convey love and joy for the baby.
