Bridal Shower card

Del wanted a wedding shower card so I made this one for her.  I sure hope she likes it.  I used one of Lindsay's new sets April Showers, available as an SVG die cut and printable PNG and JPG.  I moved it up 2 sizes larger and ran the umbrella through my Big Shot to emboss.  I used some Flower Soft and the grass cut file is from Birds cards.  I printed the Bridal sentiment with my printer, just guessed where I wanted it and printed it on to the 5x7 size.  Envie liner is a punch, I used some Tim Holtz distress inks also.  I used some foam to give it all some dimension.   I am linking up to
Make it Monday link party, thanks to all the ladies on the DT who make this possible and take the time to visit all of us.   Mary J, Rene, Lisa M, Shirley Anne, Chrissy, Michelle, Karen and Kerrie.
And a big shout out and thank you,  I won the "Commenter of the Week" and 4 free digi images from from Melissa's store : http://shop.meljensdesigns.com/    The prize is great girls, but meeting all of the wonderful bloggers along the way is the biggest prize of all.
I am also entering this challenge at Inspired by  
 
Whoo Hoo!  This just in, I won the challenge at Inspired By with this card!  Thank you Laurel for hosting the challenge, it was so much fun!
Thanks for looking.  ~Diane

  56. Diane,
    If Del don't like it, send it on over to me! I'm not sure what the hubby will think about that, but what the heck, I'd do almost anything for a card this pretty! :)
    This is OUTSTANDING!!! I'm ga-ga over 3D anything and this is wonderful. It's simple and yet not...it's just perfect for the event.
    Thank you for the shout out to the MIM team, that was a sweet surprise indeed.
    Hope you're having a great week and thank you for your comment you left. VERY much appreciated.
    Hugs!
