Silk Flower arrangements for Holly's Wedding

These are the flowers/arrangements that I made for my niece's wedding in June 2008. It was my first wedding flowers to arrange and she LOVED them. I was nervous about doing it but was honored she choose me. Thanks Holly (Her wedding was beautiful!) This is my son and daughter. She played the harp at this outdoor wedding. I did her bouquet, too.

Flower Bouquet

This is a bouquet that I made for our tax lady who has MS. What a sweet lady and so hard to see her struggle with this disease. The flowers and vase was all made out of paper. It took a lot of time but was way fun to make.

Personalized Stamp

Here is my personalized stamp that I had made for me. I put my "stamp" on things I make. I love it.

Amanda's Bridal Shower Scrapbook

This was one of my first scrapbooks that I have ever made. I'm just getting around in posting it. It was done for my niece Amanda and tells of her life and her now husband's life and about the years up to their marriage. Hope you enjoy it. It was so much fun to make.

Programs

I made the programs. I used my cricut to cut the jackets and printed off the four pages for each program. Put them together with a ribbon. This picture is of a sample one that I sent to my daughter to approve it. The actual programs had blue or green bows on them.

Basket for the bubbles

I took a free basket that I won on my bike trip and padded it with some quilt padding and put satin fabric over it. Added ribbon on the handle and decorated it with green ribbon and pearls. It turned out really nice. Here is a picture of my 'mess' while doing it. LOL

pew bows

I made 24 pew bows. They each used 5 yards of ribbon. I also put pearls in each on of them. Bought the pew hangers from Oriental Trading.

memory vase

I etched a vase for the groom in memory of his mother. The words etched on it were:
"In loving memory of my mother, this rose blooms as a symbol of a life and love remembered Love, Daniel. The back side was the date. It turned out very nice. The groom really appreciated it. He got teary eyed when he saw it.

Etched toasting glasses

I etched toasting glasses for the headtable. They had the heart and dove from the Wedding cartridge on the along with their names and date. I etched eight of them but only used six of them for the wedding. That way they had a set to keep for themselves.

Abby/Daniel's Wedding favors

These were the favors I made of my daughter's wedding. I made the paper roses in the colors of the wedding and designed the box. I embossed the boxes with the Big Shot Express. Then assembled them with ribbons, pearls, and tags. They choose the saying and we bought puzzles from Oriental Trading to put inside. I made 125 of them. The tag on them says: "We have tied the knot and there's no untangling us."
