Love and Marriage 4+ years later

You guys, it finally happened! My daughter finished her wedding album. Yay This past year they celebrated their 4 year anniversary, they have also had a little boy and a little girl since they said I Do.

Her album was one of her favorite gifts, she actually called me before I even got home from the reception (an hour away) to thank me. She has been working on filling it ever so slowly ever since.

Here it is.

The first page,

A little close up of the details

This page is a little busy but it was for something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue. I also love how she put up her dress with her bridesmaid dresses.

A page just for her

One for him too

I love way this page turned out with her bridesmaids.

The groomsmen all cleaned up so nicely.

Some moments from their ceremony

 and from their photo shoot

 

Family shots

She was not sure what she wanted to do here but it turned out perfect for the speeches

Their cake I already knew what it looked like so I made an embellishment that looked like it.

Their first dance

Friends and fun times from the photo booth at the reception

Now the party really starts

and then the night comes to an end

More kissing...

I made her invitations and some other things for her wedding that for some reason I did not take a photo of. I have to say this album was a lot of work but I loved making it and to know that they have this to remember their special day makes it all worth it.

Off on an adventure

I hope you have been able to join in our fun over on Facebook for the Bountiful Blessings Crop...speaking of blessings this is sketch #4 at our crop but you still have time to join in the fun!

I am sharing a card I made for my husband. He recently changed careers and just got his CDL. He has been talking about doing this ever since I met him so I am just so happy that he was able to pursue and complete one of his dreams. He started his first job and I wanted to give him a nice card to start off his adventure. 

I looked through my stamps and found several cars, vans, and even a motorcycle. I couldn't find a semi or anything I liked so I looked up what I had available on my cricut. Sure enough I found a truck but I wanted a flat bed. I decided to slice it up and make my own flat bed, since that is what he will be driving. 

I decided to add a sentiment for his load. Fussy cut a few clouds, tore the "road" and added some heart clouds. Over all it came together really fast and I was happy with the end result.

Here you can see all the layers on the truck and I also popped up the base.

I like to coordinate the inside of my cards. I left this one blank so I could write mushy stuff in there.

Here is the sketch that I used as a starting point for my card. I stayed pretty true to the layout. I just moved the sentiment from the bottom to the truck bed. Sketch #62

I did some hidden journaling with this one because this was such a great story. I could have also chose another background paper and journaled where the brown gingham is at but went this route instead.

 This is sketch #92

I hope you like what I came up with! I hope you will be able to play along and show us what you came up with.

Fall Fun

I so happy to announce that I am rejoining the Sketch N Scrap team! I was lucky enough to be one of the early team members but then life got a wee bit crazy and I had to step down. I was so excited when my scrappy friend Lisa reached out to me about being a Guest Designer this past October and then let me know that there was an opening on the Social Media Team and invited me join. Sketch N Scrap was the first design team was lucky enough to be a part of so it is a bit like coming home. 

Today we have Sketch #140 by Lisa Hidy. I love that there are so many photos on this page. I decided to pull some photos from last year when we went to the Apple Orchard it was just a perfect day and this was a fun page to scrap. I hope you enjoy it. 

Here are some of the details...pumpkins, pearls, and the little title stickers. I love using those.

Here is the sketch I stayed pretty true to it this time.
