Book Labels to include in Baby Shower Invitations?
I'm looking for a cute label to include in the baby shower invitations for people to put in books instead of giving cards.
I trying to find either a company that will do it or something I can do myself.
Ideally, I would like a space where I can explain what guests should do with the label on the top part of the page with a peel off label under it. I'd like the label to be big so people can have room to write their sentiments, but I'd like it to have a little decoration on it so it's not just a blank label.
Any suggestions? TIA!!!

My sister just made the book labels and people filled them out when they got to the shower. I'm pretty sure she did it on word used the graphic from the invite and then underneath it says "baby my last name"'s library and then underneath that is says given with love by with a blank line next to it. Our invite included a bookmark that just had a quote about reading by dr. seuss and then a line on the bottom that said children's book wishing well.

Re: Book Labels to include in Baby Shower Invitations?
Honestly...I just looked them up, cause I never thought of using labels (at my shower for my DD, everyone just wrote in the book), but it look very easy to make yourself.
Would that be an option for you?

Re: Book Labels to include in Baby Shower Invitations?
It's not a label but something cute I just found:
I want to be a bright child
As smart as I can be.
That is why I'm hoping
My mom will read to me.
If you plan to bring a card
Please take another look,
I would like to learn my ABC's
From your favorite storybook.
Please sign your name
As your personal touch.
Baby ________ thanks you
Beary, beary much.
Or replace the last paragraph with the following:
Please add your name and a note
Then I'll know you've done your part.
Some day I'll surely thank you
From the bottom of my heart.
or:
A card is nice, its sentiment sweet,
But a book will keep baby on her feet.
For years to come, baby will read
Longing for stories will never be a need.
A shelf full of wisdom for all to give,
For baby to keep as long as she shall live.
Filling the shelf should not be hard,
If you would please sign a book instead of a card.

I think I can make them myself... now my problem is just finding a one sheet label with a space on top to write what they're supposed to do with the label.
Either that, or I can put a single label in a vellum envelope with the poem on the outside of the envelope enclosed in the invitation. I thought of that possibility while lying in bed this morning.
Oh - and when I say "I" - I mean my mom. lol. I'm addicted to party planning - even my own! 
Thanks for all the suggestions!

Honestly, I would go with this route.
