Mardi Gras baby shower theme ideas
Use the Mardi Gras baby shower theme to add some flare and southern hospitality to your party. The standard mardi gras colors are purple, green and gold. So, for a baby shower, you can use those same colors as-is, or use pastels. As soft lavender, mint green and pastel yellow will compliment each other nicely for both boys and girls.

Invitations:
Use gold or pastel yellow paper, and accent your decorations with the
other 2 colors. Black wording will probably be best as it will show up
nicely on the bright paper.
