Bridal Shower Card

Click HERE for my 500 Follower Giveaway! Make a comment on that post & follow my blog for your chance to win!!!

Hey All!

 

So, my BFF's Bridal Shower has FINALLY happened! It has been a LONG time coming, but its finally over! She had such a great time! Even though she hates being the center of attention, she still enjoyed it all! We had it at a little Italian Restaurant near us, and it was great! She even surprised us! She did know, but that was still OK!

 

Here is the beautiful bride to be!

 

 

 

We had it set up very lovely! It was a nice intimate occasion!

 

Here is the card I made her. Now, this is NOT an original design. I remember seeing this card made a ways back (I think it was on Stampin' Connection), and I cant remember who I saw create this! BUT, if you know, please comment below so I can give proper credit! 

 

These are her colors. Its like a Marine Blue and a Lime Green. They look REALLY pretty together! This card took about 15 minutes to make. VERY EASY! Here are the supplies I used:

 

Big Shot

Cricut Pinking Stitch Embossing Folder

Stampin' Up Square Lattice Embossing Folder

Stampin' Up Large Heart Punch

Stampin' Up Everyday Enchantment Ribbon-Lucky Limeade

Recollections Paper

Pearls from my stash

Sentiment from Jaded Blossom Set (I believe it is now retired)

 

She really liked this card. I wrote a little something in there for her! I cried as I wrote it. I am such a such a sap! LOL!

 

OK all, Hope to catch you Craftin' and Stampin'!
