Perfect Papers

Thursday, June 23, 2011



Kathleen's blog, Twig and Thistle, is totally irresistible; it's no surprise then, that the invitations she crafted for her youngest sister's bridal shower were absolutely gorgeous! Since it would be a lingerie shower with just her closest friends and plenty of sweets, Kathleen chose shades of pink, gold and white. The darling little envelope on the front of the invitation held an accordion card with all the party details-isn't it charming?

What kind of shower celebration is your favorite? I'm always amazed by how many different kinds of showers people throw for brides-to-be!

    what's my favorite kind of shower? the kind with lots of tasty food!

    Me, my mom and my sister go all out when it comes to putting out a nice spread! shower food is the best!

    But as for themes, i sort of like the around the clock showers. And i always like the idea of having people bring a recipe + then creating a cook book for the couple.

    Ha ha, there I go with the food again. :)

    xo, chrissy.

    Oh I love little things! Dave often jokes that I say "now in a mini" far too often. Those invites are just lovely and the mini card..oh to die for!

    Love the mini envelope! After seeing all kinds of inspiration for showers, I love one that is beautifully planned. However, any shower with great food and company will win me over!

    I love the color combination of this invitation. And I just love invitations that come in so many small, beautiful, parts. I love showers that shower love! Sometimes all of the details and planning can get one lost in the process. I think it is always important to be present, guest or guest of honor! xo Samantha

    perfect paper, indeed! I was actually flipping through a MS living and came across the most darling shower I have ever seen! For a mother to be. Her guests brought their favorite childhood books as gifts and all the decor was inspired by books and the stories in them. Cute, right?!

    Beautiful! I love the sweet pink envelope. I'm becoming a fan of smaller parties for these types of celebrations. That way you can put it all into the details and keep it affordable!
