Are you sitting down? I hope so because this is going to be a first...I'm posting a partially non SU! project! (GASP!!) lol!
My husband needed a bridal shower gift for one of his employees. I found this "scrapbook in a box" at the local LSS. I used SU! Brushed Silver, Whisper White, Basic Black and Vellum Card Stock. The "bling" is non SU!, but was a better choice than brads for this project. The wedding bells and heart images are from a retired SU! stamp set.
The sentiments were printed from the computer onto Whisper White Card Stock. The smaller one is the date of their wedding. Each is covered with Vellum Card Stock. The ribbon is retired Silver Organdy.
This is a view as you open the book. On the left inside cover, I printed their names from the computer and stamped a heart.
Here are 4 of the pages. The last page with the hearts is adhered to the book. "Love" is from Wonderful Words stamped in black.
The flipside which will hold 3 pictures. "Celebrate" is from Wonderful Words stamped in black.
I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. I kept it simple so that the photos she adds are the main focal point. I hope Ana likes it too!
Thanks for the visit!




Sheryl, that is sooo cute! Even if it's not all SU stuff!!!

this is exactly what I had in my mind to make for a 50th anniversary. She is not crafty at all and I needed something easy that the placement of the pics would be obvious. Was this book easy to put together. Can I ask you where you purchased it and the cost. Thank you. You did a great job on it.
