Shower card for a friend

Hi everyone, hope everyone is having a lovely weekend so far.  We are doing tons of yard work and luckily the weather is cooperating!!!!  I wanted to share this card with you before I headed outside for the day.  A friend of mine needed a bridal shower card for today, so I said I'd give her one from my stash.  But I had a little extra time so I made a new one.  This is one of my all time favorite images and one of the first stamps I've ever purchased.  I thought it would look beautiful with this bella blue paper from SU.  I used some brocade blue scraps and Ivory card stock. I embossed and distressed with scissors and ink.  Both sentiments are from SU one is from teeny tiny wishes and the other is from a super old set.  I added a few blue highlights to the dress with my copic. And that's about it, it went together pretty quickly!
