In Awe

I had some pictures in mind when I made this Cherry-O layout. Like all other pictures, though, they are sitting on my hard drive, hoping to one day be developed. This is my contribution to the swap. I realize it is not as fabulous as the rest, but it was the best I could come up with at the time.

I Love Weddings….

…and I was very excited to get our first wedding invitation the other day. A friend of ours is getting married. I love weddings because it gives me a chance to get out with my DH and dress up. Plus I love all things romantic and sappy and I also get to create something especially for the happy new couple. I decided that I would make them a mini album to go along with the frame I will be doing for them soon. I love how it tuned out and I hope they love it as well.






Everything I used was CTMH:
Felicity Paper Packet and Stamp set (January 2010 promotion – I still have a couple packages left for sale)
Friendship Small Alphabet
State of Mind
Celebrate Life (retired)
Wonderful Friend stamp set (June SOTM…available only during the month of June)
Love Language
Clear Sparkles
Adhesive Pearls (past connection club reward)

Heart 2 Heart Challenge #4 - Ribbon

Ribbon is a fabulous embellishment to play with. I love it! This week’s challenge is to add at least two pieces of ribbon to your project. This is not hard for me when I am making layouts, as I rarely have a layout without ribbon on it. In fact, it would be a lot more challenging for me to have to create a layout with no ribbon. So, I decided to make a layout for this challenge and I love how it turned out. Besides the flower punch all supplies are CTMH. A list of the supplies can be found below.





The pattern is “Contrasting Elements” from Cherish – pages 62-63
Cherry-O My Reflections Level 2 *NEW*
Connections Club textured stickers (ask me how you can get these absolutely free!)
Tulip Brads
Sweetleaf Grosgain ribbon
Stardust Glitter Glue *NEW* (it is on the small flowers…does not show up well in the pictures, but looks fabulous in real life…this is a must have for all scrapbookers)
Celebrate Life stamp set (retired)
Wonderful Friend stamp set (June SOTM…available only during the month of June)
