I used two stamps sets from The Stamps Of Life. The sentiment is from the sweet4babies set and the inside was made with the invites2create set. I used some older Almost Amethyst DP for the punched baby carriage. I ran a panel of white cardstock through the CB with my swiss dots embossing folder and added some sheer white dotted ribbon to match.
My sis is a bit of a diva (don't worry, I would say this to her face and I love her gobs), and.... she is very specific about what she doesn't want for her baby girl. No pink. No hearts. No bows. Uhhhhh, yeah...
No pink...check.
No hearts...check.
No bows...well....How could this card NOT have a bow? It is for a baby girl, and I decided it, along with the flower border on the maybe blue/maybe lavender colored baby carriage, would clue those in who didn't know. So, what do you think?
Thanks for stopping by!
Emily

Emily, these invites are adorable! Your sister is so lucky to have custom-created shower invitations. LOVE them!
SUCH sweet cards, Emily! Make sure you keep a sample for your sister's baby book...wonder who will be making that?!
I just love The Stamps of Life...I have used them for so much. What a cute invite--so baby sweet! I have a SIL who really didn't like pink either for her girls. The bow was the perfect "girlie" touch! Where is the flower border from? Is it a punch or a pre-made item?
Thanks for inspiring with all your beautiful work :)
LOL I just made 41 invites for our niece and she is very specific too! LOL Those new Mama's know what they want! We love them no matter what! Your cards are beautiful and she is going to LOVE them!
gotta love a girl who knows what she likes:) your invites are darling, even without the pink!
Emily, this is so sweet! I love the little carriage and of course you needed the bow!!
Pefrect! I think you have satisfied her requirements and still have a perfectly sweet baby invite. And I agree... the bow is a must.
Love these sweet cards. :)
What a nice surprise this is! I'm going to be a brand new, first time grandmother in July and I'm working on several proofs for my daughter-in-laws baby shower. All of our grown children like the contemporary CAS designs.
You have achieved both a CAS and "sweetness" look by using ribbon and embossing. It's darling and fills my need for cute : ) Thank you Emily.
