Freebie: Cupcake Illustration Vector

After a fruitless search for a free, Creative Commons-licensed vector illustration of a cupcake, I decided to pull out Illustrator and make one myself. If you wish to use this for your own projects or site, just download it below. All I ask is that if you do use it, you won't use it for commercial purposes without asking and you provide a link back to Nested.

Win a Copy of Listography!

Here at Nested, we're giving away three copies of Listography Journal: Your Life in Lists, a soon-to-be-published Chronicle book by Lisa Nola and illustrated by Nathaniel Russell.  While Listography isn't exactly a children's book or a book for baby, we definitely see a tie-in that has to do with kids.

Children's Book Shower Bookplates

We sure love the idea of a children's book-themed shower where guests are asked to bring a favorite childhood book of theirs as their gift. Sure, you may not end up with the bottle warmer you actually need, but you're certain to receive gifts that hold a certain amount of sentimental signficance to your guests.

Truly Free Baby Shower Game Printouts

If you're planning a baby shower, you're probably pretty aware that some of of the online resources for baby shower games and the baby shower game printouts are kind of, well, shady. Between pop-ups galore, link farms or misleading "free" labels, we've become frustrated with the quality of games out there. And don't even get us started about the crimes committed with atrocious clip-art!

Here at Nested, we've taken baby steps (get it, baby steps) to help you throw a classier shower and have created two completely free, printable shower games for you and your guests to enjoy. No cheesy clipart and just straightforward downloadable pdfs that won't take over your computer with one wrong click. To spice the printouts up, print them on cardstock to match the colors of the shower or the mommy-to-be's nursery.

The games, we think, are pretty fun too:
