Project Life Wedding Pages

Today I have a few more pages to share with you from the Project Life Album I created as a gift for some dear friends.

Their wedding ceremony was just perfect...from the beautiful weather to the gorgeous cliff-side setting of Cresent Bay in Laguna Beach. I embellished a few photos with gold embossed shells from the Stippled Shells stamp set (retired) and some Gold 1/8" Ribbon. The photo at top right is stamped in White Stazon Ink with the pretty swirl from Creative Elements. (retired) Yes, I do keep my favorite stamp sets to use in my scrapbooks.

The top, left photo is stamped with and the word love from the Wonderful Words stamp set...that one goes WAY back to my firsr days as a SU! demo. Along with the oldies I've also used a current SAB stamp set...Any Occasion. Mr & Mrs from that set is stamped on the die-cut watercolored heart.

More gold embossed shells from the Stippled Shells embellish the photos at left. The single photo at right uses Falling In Love DSP from the current Occasions Catalog. It's just perfect for wedding photos! I embossed a lace border from the Delicate Details stamp set along the bottom of the photo. Both Delicate Details and Any Occasion are FREE selections during Sale-A-Bration. Here's a closer look...

Sorry about the glare from the page protector. I used the Remember This (retired) stamp set on these pages as well. Both sides of the Falling in Love DSP were perfect for thses photos, so here's a look at the flip side.

Their smiles say it all! It was such a wonderful day!!! Check back again to see more pages from this Project Life Album.

Lift Me Up Baby Girl

Today I have some very exciting news to share and my news was the inspiration for this card...

If you are thinking my exciting news is that today is the first day of Sale-a-Bration and the Occasions catalog...you would only be partially right. While that IS exciting news, my news is even better than that! (for me and my family anyways!) Yesterday, January 3rd, we welcomed our first grandchild...a GIRL and she is HEALTHY and BEAUTIFUL!

It was love at first sight! Yesterday was truly one of the most incredible, emotional & memorable days of my life! I was blessed to be in the delivery room to witness the birth of our precious grand-daughter. Seeing my sons pride as he looked upon the face of his beautiful baby girl for the first time is a moment I will never forget. Baby Madelyn Ann came into the world at 3:55 PM weighing a whopping 9 pounds! Being the mother of two sons, it's going to be so much fun having a little girl to love and spoil...and turn into my little stampin' buddy!

I used the Lift Me Up Bundle - Lift Me Up stamp set and Up & Away Thinlits, to create this card. I stamped the background balloons right onto a piece of Falling In Love DSP. I thought this DSP was perfect as it looks like its covered with tiny floating hearts. During Sale-A-Bration, if you purchase the Lift Me Up Bundle and one other small item...such as the DSP used here, you would qualify to choose one SAB item...such as the Any Occasion stamp set for FREE!

The Any Occasion stamp set works well with the large hot air balloon die cuts, to add banners to the balloon for, you guessed it...Any Occasion! Along with the sentiments in this set, there are many little stamps included to decorate the stamped banners in this 20 pc photopolymer set. I also used another great SAB set to decorate the balloon...the scallop and dot border stamped on the Calypso Coral portion of the balloon is from the Delicate Details stamp set. Other colors used are: Flirty Flamingo, Blushing Bride and Peekaboo Peach.
