Wedding Day Memories


This is for Maggie. I wanted a mini for her to be able to journal and keep pics of her special day. I wanted her to be able to look back and remember how she felt when she woke up on her wedding day. I wanted her to be able to document all the special parts and even the little oops through out the day. A place to look back and see a pic of her Mom putting on her veil.  I hope this mini brings her joy through out her life as she looks back and remembers her Wedding Day.

The flowers are from Recollections. The paper stack is from DCWV.  The Mademoiselle Stack. Vintage Photo and Tea Dye are the Tim Holtz Distress Inks I used. This is a paperbag mini using The Paper Studio small paperbags from Hobby Lobby.

I know there are so many different paperbag mini albums out there. I know elements of this bag are used in other videos, but I did not copy this mini from any one person. If you have already done this, I 'm sorry for not giving you proper credit. :) I had fun making this mini for Maggie. I hope she enjoys it just as much.

Recipe Book

Here are some pictures of the recipe book that I did. I still haven't made the one for my daughter yet. This one is for a friend who is getting married this week. I hope you like it.











 I made the album using a design from Paper Phenomenon. Kathy is a genius. The design is called The Ultimate Paper Bag Album. If you aren't already familiar with Kathy, check her out. She is kathyorta on youtube. On Ustream her classes are given under Paper Phenomenon. Here is a link to her blog http://paperphenomenon.blogspot.com/

I found the Farm Fresh paper stack from the Paper Studio at Hobby. I loved the old vintage farmhouse kitchen feel the paper had. I distressed the paper using Vintage Photo and Walnut distress inks.  Now I need to make another for my newly married daughter. Instead of focusing on the apple motif, I am going to use the eggs for sale. I  can't wait to get started ! 

Okay my friends, have a happy scrap filled day :)
