Bridal shower cards are so much fun to make! Especially when you can use an adorable umbrella from the Weather Together stamp set and coordinating dies!
I made this card for the daughter of a friend of mine. My friend made the bridal shower invitations using the Weather Together set. I wanted my card to coordinate with everything so I gently pulled the sweet little umbrella off of the invitation and used it for my card!! (I’ve done this before and it’s a great way to carry out the theme of the event!)
This card was really easy to make once I had the umbrella! 🙂  I cut a piece of Fabulous Foil Designer Acetate, tied a pretty bow around it with the Night of Navy 1/2″ Gingham Ribbon, attached the umbrella, and there you go! Easy ~ and pretty.

DON’T FORGET ABOUT MY RIBBON SHARE!
18 yards of ribbon for only $20!
What is a ribbon share?
A ribbon share is an opportunity for you to get a little bit of the FABULOUS new Stampin’ Up! holiday ribbons without having to buy an entire spool! I cut the spools of ribbon into 2-yard lengths and you get 2 yards of each ribbon. This is a great way for you to have lots of ribbons on hand for your holiday crafting without having to make a big investment!
How does it work?
I’ve chosen ALL of the new ribbons in the Holiday Catalog and one ribbon in the Annual Catalog for your holiday ribbon share. You will receive 18 yards of ribbon for only $20, plus $5 shipping (see below). If you want to participate, email me with the words RIBBON SHARE in the subject line and I will send you an invoice via email. (Please watch your inbox for the invoice and also check your junk mail in case it goes in there!) To secure your place in the Ribbon Share, you must pay the invoice within 24 hours of receipt.
I will place my order for all ribbons on September 15th. Please allow until September 30 to receive your shares as I have to order the ribbons, sort, cut and mail all of the ribbons after I get them ?
Please see the Holiday Catalog for close up photos and further descriptions of each ribbon described below. You will receive 2 yards of each of the following ribbons:

I love what you did with the umbrella, Peggy! So did Samantha and John. I was with them when they opened it. What a cute idea!
It was a joy to make it for your sweet daughter Su!
oh I love this card peggy!
Thank you Robbi!
Lovely card Peggy, so elegant.
Question: how do you tie such lovely bows?
Oh Julieann, you are so sweet! I’ve always loved tying bows and wrapping packages (since I was very young). I’ve had a lot of practice. I would say go slow and work with the ribbon by turning it the way you want it. And, use good ribbon. This gingham ribbon from Stampin’ Up! is excellent for bows. You’ll be able to make a pretty bow with it, I promise!
