A Vintage Bridal Shower


Today was a very a very special day.  It was my daughter's Bridal Shower!  That is who I have been making all of these projects for.  She is getting married in February and 

 today we had her shower.  Her sister planned and hosted the shower and I made everything for it. I designed the invitations, thank you notes, favor boxes ( filled with Oreo Truffles- her favorite) and the post it notepad.  Everyone felt they were very elegant.  

Her gown is ivory and the maid of honor's dress is black so it is a very formal looking wedding.  It also has a vintage feel to it.  So I used the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder to make the invitations and favors.
 The cake was also made to have a vintage feel to it.  The icing was ivory and then there was black piping around the sides.  It was beautiful!
 Here is a picture of the set up of the favor boxes which were made with the Favor Box Sizzix die and Big Shot.  They were filled with the Oreo Truffles.  Everyone loved, loved, loved them.  You can also see the post it memo pads that were the favors.  I used the smallest of the 1/2 round Pearl Jewels that SU  sells.
Here is a better picture of what we put at the place settings.  It really looked gorgeous!  It looked so much better than what we had envisioned.
Chocolate covered strawberries that the Groom to Be' s mother made.  Delicious!

What a wonderful day!  Enjoy yours!

 What a beautiful setting for a shower!
