Hello Friends!
The themes for the Swap for All Seasons swap in March
were Spring and yellow.
I don't use yellow much in my crafting, but I love this image
that has just a splash of yellow.
I love the spring-y background and her wistful look.
I wanted to keep the card simple
and let the lovely lady be the star.
A bit of vintage lace and vintage millinery flowers:
And my tag:
They say April showers bring May flowers...
I was hoping the showers would wait until my shower was held...
I hosted a bridal shower at my home
for my daughter's lovely sister-in-law last week.
The sun was in and out but no rain!
The décor was organic, garden-y,
with a bit of herbs, yellow, burlap and chalkboard. :)
Her sister and sister-in-law were the real hostesses,
I did the décor
with a little help from the bubble girls
(flower girls who blow bubbles).
Nine year old Ainsley made the favors herself,
homemade bath salts (below).
Don't they look great?

I love how these champagne glasses look
lined up on the burlap ribbon:
One of the hostesses made these lovely little tags
with a different herb for each one
and the trait that the herb stands for (above).
The caterer made a beautiful table of delicious food:
I had fun making this photo op
with a French garden shop look :)
OK. Now I'm ready for April showers!
We dearly need them in Southern California.

OMG Lorraine, what a beautiful shower! Everything looked so lovely with your special Lorraine touch.
I don't use yellow that much either but your projects turned out great!

BEAUTIFUL card and tag - love the vintage lace and the images are wonderful! Love the bits of yellow!
Lorraine, it all looks fabulous ! I could tell by your card and tags that the shower decorations would be A plus plus plus and they surely were. (())
It's always such a treat to see your creations Lorraine. Everything is just beautiful and thank you for the freebies!

Just lovely. Always fun to see what you've been up to. I have been going to print out some images to use for Easter - think I'll make use of some of these. They will be perfect! Making you my pick of the week for Pink Saturday. Stop by and grab a Featured At button. Have a great week
Your work is so exquisite Lorraine! I found you at My Romantic Home and couldn't resist having a peek :)
Stunning decorating for the shower!!The tag is darling too. I love the way burlap was used in several places--my favorite fabric-hands down. Thanks for your visit today and sweet comment.

Your cards are so very pretty and she was definitely the star! Love the wine glasses in a row with their little herb trait tags. Thanks for popping in and your kind words. Best~~~Mickie
Stunning Shower decor and setting. Lovely March Yellow Swap card and tag. It is always the little details that make the difference. Creative Bliss...
