Bridal Shower Fun!

So I told you all about the bridal shower last weekend, sorry it has taken forever for me to post pics!  Unfortunately I don't have any pics of Audra and me together because I was busy chasing after my kids, but I did get a few pictures!

I actually fixed my hair!  Something I am to lazy never have time to do!

Audra's Mom was amazing, she bought most of the decorations (thank you Kate)!  And I was so excited when she let me make the favor boxes!

I think they turned out super cute!  I am 97% sure she got the diamond ring key chains from Oriental Trading.  I tied some ribbon around the keychains and hot glued the paper flowers onto the ribbon, so easy!

And this was my favorite part, the cake!  I love cake and I love to make cakes even more when they are this easy!  Slap some Oreo Straw sticks around the side and tie with ribbon and call it good, I didn't even have to make the icing look pretty!  I found the flowers from the Dollar Store, I was amazed that they sold such pretty flowers.  I bought the crystal beady thing at WalMart, it's cake garland and I cut it up and stuck them in!  I found the tutorial for the cake at Texas Monkey.  She has some really cute candy cakes too!

And I may not have gotten a picture with Audra, but 2 little girls did!

And yes I like to dress them alike, it's a sickness!  Audra I am so excited for you and can't wait for your wedding!

Bridal Shower Invitations

Here is the finished product from my sneak peak the other night!

Colorado Bridal Shower invitations for one of my oldest and best friends!  I am so honored to get to be in her wedding in October and I was so excited when she asked me to help plan her Colorado bridal shower!  And this is why I now love spray adhesive, there are so many layers in this card!  

I love pink (it's my fave) and the decor for the shower was pink so I was in heaven!  I found the cute ribbon at Wal-Mart and I took some beading wire I had and twisted it in a random pattern and glued the sucker on.  I love the way they turned out and I hope she does too!  

  

And since she is traveling from Illinois (she grew up in Colorado) and doesn't have a ton of room to pack gifts to take home, we politely asked for Lowe's Gift cards.  You know how when you got married and got the random, not so cute gifts not that I wasn't thankful for mine?  But some how you feel guilty about asking for specifics?  I think I found a cute little saying that isn't offensive!

"Audra and Joe just bought a house!  Let's help make their house a home with Lowe's gift cards!"

Cute and un-offensive..........right?  Now I just need to find/make some decorations and it will be a party!

Bridal Shower Fun!

I had the honor of attending a friends bridal shower last weekend.  I love home made gifts and I had so much fun making hers!  I wanted to create something special for her and her soon-to-be husband's house and I had to make a few little extras just for her.  And since I am addicted to my cricut I couldn't help myself!!!!

And here are the extras!!!

I wish you a lifetime of love and happiness!!
