Leaving in the limousine.

 

Just because it was so cute.

 

A place to keep ticket stubs from shows there saw or other fun things.

 

In case you are wondering, black and red are her favorite colors and that is why I used a lot of black and red.  And Halloween is her favorite holiday. 

 

Have a great day!

 

 

Wedding Album Series # 6

Happy Monday everyone!

 

 

Look at how happy the bride is!!  She was so nervous before the wedding, now she looks happy and relaxed. 

 

Maybe this page should be before the first page?  I found that trying to sequence the pages was hard.

 

Outside the Wedding Chapel, with your name in lights.

 

Your name and the date alternated.

 

Same as the other picture just different background paper.  I really like the plastic keys I found to put on these pages with the keys.

 

Well I was looking to see how many more pages I have and after todays five pictures and I only have five more pictures of pages to edit and post. The end is in sight.

 

 

Wedding Album Series # 5

I don't know about you but my week sure was a busy one.  I have been able to do some fun things again, which makes me feel like I am back among the living.  I taught an EQ 7 class Beyond the Basics.  I only had two students but they were excited and learned lots and we had fun and I did something besides be at home or do errands, so it was worth it.  Today I am going to the scrapbook convention.  And tomorrow Mr. B and I will have a date for our anniversary which was in March but I was too sick to go out. 

 

 

More Kisses

 

So tender

 

 

It's Official!

Wedding Album Series # 3

Well I had a very busy Friday and Saturday.  I took my foster kids to the Zoo, and we had a grand time and did a lot of walking and of course it was the first day we hit the 90s.  Too hot for me. I even did some sewing so I will post that later.

 

Back to the Wedding Album. 



The happy couple walked in together on their first walk of their new life. 

The fog machine adding atmosphere.

Kierra had her dad give her away.  Originally she didn't want to do this but I explained to her, that it is the only thing a Dad does and looks forward to doing for their daughter.  She was glad she did this for her Dad.







Just some pictures.

 

 

 

 

Well blogger is giving me fits today, I am having a hard time lining up my text with my pictures.   I think I made it!  Now to publish it falls apart again.

Wedding Album Series #2

 

Halloween 2009 10 PM.  These are the pictures we took before the wedding.  We were waiting in front of their hotel for the limousine to take us to the wedding chapel.  It was a vampire wedding.

Waiting for the ceremony to begin.

 

Wedding Album Series #1

WOW I can't believe I have not posted in over a month.  I have been very sick with bronchitis and maybe asthma.  I never had trouble with asthma before but there are times I cough so hard I wheeze and can't get my breath.  Very scary.  I am on my third round of steroids and I am still coughing.  I am so tired of it.  Anyway I will see a pulmonologist on Friday. 

Today I just wanted to do something more, so this is why I am posting. 

In October I started a wedding album for my daughter and her husband.  I presented the album to them at Christmas, not finished.  Well last Wednesday the 27th of March, I finally finished it and gave it to them when we went to dinner to celebrate her birthday. 

I really enjoyed doing this project, I had a lot of fun.  She really likes it so I am so glad I did it for her. 

I will do a series of post over a week of all the pages.  Just because I am such a show off!

 You may have seen some of these pages before but this time it will be in sequence.

 

 

Title page

 

I found a fun font to use called Slasher Heavy.  I used it for any journaling or labeling I did that wasn't in my handwriting.










The invitation.


 

The happy couple made their
own invitations. 

 

The night before the wedding the two families meet for dinner to start the celebrating.  We meet at Tao Asian Bistro.

 

 

The bride and her Dad and Richard and I.  Sometimes I look at this hair cut and I think I should cut my hair.

 

 

Kierra's brother and his former wife.  Kierra's Mom and her husband.  We sat right by the Buddha.

The groom's parents and everyone at the table.  We all had a nice evening after our long drive from Mesa AZ to Las Vegas, NV.

 

 

Some Hand Stitching

Yes I have been doing a little hand stitching.  Mind you it isn't a lot but it did seem to take a long time.  And it isn't really quilt related but it is stitching. 

 

Ready???

 

Web Page

 

Yes that is a spider web on a scrapbook page covered in spiders.  I think the spider who made this web was a little dizzy.  I used the  Sew Easy scalloped piercer tool, and the Sew Easy Circles tool.  I am sure with practice I could make it all line up better but done is better than perfect. 

 

I buy a lot of my scrapbooking supplies from Scrapbook.com.  They have local pick up right here in Mesa which I really like.  No shipping and if I order early in the morning it is same day pick up.

 

Finished page.

This is my daughter's wedding on Halloween and there was a lot of fog in the chapel.  This is for her wedding album I am making. 

 

Kierra's Flowers

This page I used the same circle tool on the edges only and the heart piercer.  There are three flowers in each corner, the third one is black.  It does show when you have the page in your hand.  Her flowers were black, perfect for her Halloween wedding. 

Well that has been the extent of my sewing.  Now I have to work on my EQ 7 lesson for tomorrow. 

Happy Stitching!

 

Christmas Top Secret Project

Now that Christmas is over I can reveal the top secret project.  It isn't complete at this time.  I still have about 20 more pictures to add to the wedding album.  Three years ago last Halloween our daughter Kierra was married in Las Vegas.  About 2 years ago I started scrapbooking.  So this year I decided to make her a wedding album in a Halloween theme and in her two favorite colors. 

 

She was so surprised when she saw it and really liked it a lot.  She is excited to post the pictures and feels very special that she has parents that do this for her, none of her friends' parents do such wonderful things. 

 

I am not posting them all here today just a few.  They are 12 x 12 pages and too big to scan.  So I am taking pictures of each of page.  She hasn't seen some of these pages because I have made them since Christmas.

 

Title Page

I did blot out their last names for privacy.

Invitation

 

 Friday Night Family Dinner

Kierra & her Dad and Mr. B & me 

  Well that is all I am going to show off for now.  I have about 22 pages done.  I used lots of different papers and techniques.  I even weaved two different papers together.  I haven't taken a picture of that page yet. 

 

It has been a fun project and I am so glad she likes it. 

 

I wish all of you a Happy New Year and may you be blessed with the righteous desires of your hearts and may you be up to your challenges.
