While I am a avid card maker, I believe that any craft is craft therapy. A chance to use my imagination and create is always welcome and helps keep me sane. Something else I always really enjoy is giving things away to others. This time it is a gift to some friends who just got married in October.
I started by printing the background DSP from MDS. I also printed the title and sentiment from MDS onto Very Vanilla cardstock. The color choices were done according to the original wedding colors. Once I had all the elements together I started to assemble.
I used the Labels Framelits to cut out the sentiment and a mat. Then I cut the title to make a banner.
The twine was purchased at a local hardware store. During the ceremony they did a hand-fastening with twine that was very similar to this, so I thought it would be a nice addition to the box that would evoke fond memories. The photos are of the bride's actual dress and the location that they got married.
I thought that a few hearts would be a nice clean addition, and I embossed them with the Square Lattice Folder to give them texture.
Overall, I really like the way that it turned out. I hope they do too!
