Showers Of Love

Here's the invitation created and sent to the guests by my sil Sherry, for dd's wedding shower. Just love the girly feminine look! So pretty!!
 
Sherry used her Cricut and the Wedding Solutions cartridge to cut the hearts from glittered cardstock, and a Sizzix 3 Dots embossing folder (from Birthday Set #2) for the base. She used a Stampin Up! scallop trim border punch and 'You're Invited' stamp from their Sincere Salutations set for the ribbon border, and I think the little popped up butterfly is a Martha Stewart punch...so SWEET! Thank you so much, Sherry!
Also want to share a few of the lovely handmade cards dd received with her gifts that day...
This beautiful sakura decorated gift card holder was created by calabash cousin, Sherry... She always does amazing work! Check out all the layers she used to create these blossoms and notice how she puffed up and shaped each individual petal  with a shaping tool for a wonderful 3D effect...
And these two sweet cards from our super talented Aunty Mollie...she used her brand new eClips cutting machine to cut the images on these! Love all the extra touches she added to make each card so special and one of a kind....neat umbrella background embossed onto the basecard with stickle glitter raindrops....and shiny silver brads for the towel bar! So creative!
Many thanks from the heart from dd and myself for everyone who made this day so wonderfully memorable and extra special! Thank you too...to everyone for braving the traffic that day...sitting in traffic waiting for President Obama's APEC entourage pass was NOT FUN!

Absolutely gorgeous...each and every one. You're all such wonderfully crafty and talented people. Your DD must've been so happy with all the love shown during her shower. Soon it will be her wedding and I know you are working on some awesome invitations and thank you cards for her. You're a wonderful mom, Eunice!
