Days 6-12

Today, I'm playing catch-up. I have been keeping up (mostly...) day-by-day; however, I have been so busy creating that I haven't posted any. Oops.

I made 14 of these pinwheels to decorate the pews of the church for the wedding. I found the tutorial for all the pinwheels on StyleMePretty. The paper is torn from hymn books. The trailing ribbons are made from old curtains and some upcycled tablecloths. My grandmother would be so happy that I'm reusing some of her goods. I wish she could be there for the wedding. I plan on adding some paper, sparkly embellishments I just bought on Etsy. I'll show you the finished product when I get them.

Also for the wedding... not sure for where, but they're pretty.

Day 4

I just finished making these save-the-dates for our wedding this June. My aunt gave me this Martha Stewart kit

I then used my Gocco machine (an engagement present from my fiance - just an amazing guy, let me tell you!) to Gocco the dove magnets. I then decoupaged the silver stationary card. Wrap that with a little silver thread and ta-da! All done. It took quite a long time to get the Gocco to match up with the dove shapes. I only made the one set (20 cards), but it was a lot of fun.

Collage Kit: Sample 2

This is another sample of a collage made with the "Fire" collage kit. Soon to be posted on my Etsy store -- watch for more details!
