There's so much love in the preparations you have made. What a gift the two of you are to one another.

What a lucky girl she is to have an aunt like you who is so talented. What you made was awesome and so beautiful - everything. sandie
What a beautiful and well planned shower. You can see how much love went into it in the little details. I love the gifts wrapped in receiving blankets, what an adorable idea. My shower is on Sunday but I'm in the hospital for preterm labor so I won't be attending :(
WOW!! I guess diapers are your medium!! You certainly outdid yourself with crafts using diapers. Hee! Hee!
Seriously, you outdid yourself with everything you made for the shower! :) I wish them all the very best during a very exciting time of their lives.
And to think of all those diapers they have now!!! ;)
Love the tiered diaper cake!
Congratulations to your lovely Niece and baby-to-be.
Wow Debbie, I'm truly knocked over at the fabulousness of everything. The diaper cake is such a marvellous creation! The carriage is so clever. Those cupcakes - oh my goodness, all the artistic delight that has gone into it all.
Such a great day for all of you :D)

I am in absolute awe of your creativity and the love evident in the gifts you made. I am envious of Dean-na and Adelina!!!
You are the best Aunt ever....wonderful, thoughtful gifts.
The baby shower looks fun, cute decor and happy photo faces. I never knew you could make cute things from diapers. Creative! I'm glad you had a good time. That is pretty nice of you.
A total explosion of Debbie-ness in this post. You really are so creative, even if you see something naughty in a photo of Common Mullein. Lol.
