Stripes Wedding Suite

Stripes Wedding Suite

Every once and awhile I just like to design something nice and simple and clean. Simple font that works well with other styles add a little bling and your done. This design will work well with any colour but I love the navy and grey in fact I think grey is going to be my new black for ever and ever!

This design was created in My Digital Studio (MDS), add an embellishment and you have a clean elegant wedding suite. Simple as that!

Say Happy I Do Day With Elegant Eggplant

Well today is a busy day here at the studio, lots of doctor appointments, lunch and shopping trip for the last items on my list before my trip.

Today's post is a wedding from across the pond in lovely England. One thing about working for a high tech company is you have working peers in other countries that become long time friends. Though I no longer work for this company I am proud that the best thing I took away are those friendships and continue to enjoy the events in their lives.

The inspiration for this page was truly the beautiful images of Judith on her wedding day. The soft lilac of her dress, the colours of her roses in her bouquet and even right down to her sexy stylish shoes. Just BEAUTIFUL!

Congradulations JU JU you look marvelous!

Happy I so To You Judith.

I absolutly love these flowers they remind me
of Judith shoes and seriously the beading matchs
the layout like I picked it just for this
occasion, but I didn't.

Close-up of the Jewelery pin,
it doesn't always need to be something
from the scrapbooking section of a craft store.

Somedays I Think My Studio is a Store

I swear, my studio could easily be a store I am always picking up things that I have good intentions of doing and then put it away and forget. Should I complain, probably not but really, I could be locked in here for a year and not need anything, OK well maybe tape, but that's all. LOL

Today's project is something that I have wanted to do for awhile but just never got around too. Maybe I felt it was overwhelming maybe I just couldn't think of what to do but once I got going it was so much fun. To solve the overwhelming idea I viewed each section as a card using the same materials but each one but laying them out different. Plus by making three pictures and the others like cards I think it worked.

Another thing I did was stamp on the photos and framed them with card stock and sanding down the sides. I also created the flower using sheer ribbon material and a special button given to me by my friend Stacey. She had several buttons gathered over the years, this particular one was my favorite and because she had a couple I didn't feel to bad taking!

The other thing I love were the pictures it's hard to believe that eight years has gone by since we got married, and the youngest is going to be 11 soon. And of course my Mom and Dad looking so proud. It was such a good day.

Thanks for dropping by!

Happy 60th Wedding Anniversary Mom and Dad Louiseize

Welcome to Saturday

Today we are celebrating my husbands parents sixtieth wedding anniversary, yes I said sixty. I can't imaging how much things have changed over the last sixty years for them. I often wonder if JC and I will every see twenty-five years let alone sixty? Why if we were to celebrate our sixtieth wedding anniversary that would be in the year 2063? Yikes we only have 53 more years to go.

Anyway the family is having a gathering at JC's brothers place and include in the celebration are my parents too, which is wonderful. The following cards are for them one from my parents and one from JC and I.

Happy 60th Wedding Anniversary Mom and Dad Louiseize!

Stamped using Hostess stamp set Simply Soft from
Stampin' Ups New 2011-12 Cataloge 

Close-up showing the pin created using Basic Pearls from Stampin' Up and
a basic pearl straight pin like ones you would use for florals.

For me it is always about the details, tiny basic pearls added to
the flower plus a little rock and roll of colour

This card was made using Creative Elements, Hostess Something to Celebrate stamp sets. I love the swirly background from Creative elements and the that I created using silver and the tag, a few jewels and it is lovely!



Shown a close-up of the tag stamped with Anniversary from Something to Celebrate!


Have a great weekend!
