Weekend Wedding Projects

It's been cold and wet out so far this weekend so today I've been inside working on wedding stuff. I know, I still have 9 months left but I would love to get it all done and then just relax, enjoy the holiday this winter and scrap my little heart out. So here's what I've been working on...
 My living room today.
 Boutonnieres that are finished so far. I've just been pulling the leaves off of the rose stems and hot gluing them behind the rose. Then I've been wrapping in these bead stems. I love how they're turning out. Their also super easy to make!
 These are for the ushers. My baby brother(13) is allergic to latex so I had to get the silk flowers for these instead of the real touch flowers.
 These are for our dads, his grandpa and our 2 ring bearers.
 And this is my bouquet!!! I just mixed the orchids and the ivory roses together with some jewel stems and wrapped the bouquet in ivory satin ribbon. I might add a little bling to the wrap later.

Happiness is a day at the Beach

This layout is for a scraplift challenge at Scrapbook Challenges. I use the Imaginisce Splash Dance line and some pictures of Mya digging in the sand. It was her first weekend at the lake and she loved it! Thanks for looking!
Here's another layout I completed today. These are pictures from my trip to California after high school graduation. My aunt and uncle who live near LA always pay for one ticket and then you can bring a friend. This was one afternoon when we drove down to Laguna beach for lunch after we'd been swimming.

College Graduation

Here is a layout documenting the few pictures we have of our college graduation. Chad, his brother, his sister and I all graduated on the same day. Three of us from UNK. It was a quick little party because my brother graduated high school the next day. We just got an alumni invite in the mail that was perfect for adding our mascot and that little UNK Alumni word. This layout was inspired by the Creative Scrappers Sketch #120. The left side follows the sketch pretty good and then I added the right side so I could use more pictures. Thanks for looking!

Martina McBride Concert

I'm busy working on my stash of old pictures and these are the ones I decided to work with last night. I made this page for Sketch #119 at Creative Scrappers. An old roommate and I went to Martina McBride for a girls weekend and then decided to go to a casino afterwards. It was a lot of fun, even though we lost 20 bucks.
  It's cloudy out so the picture didn't turn out so good. I used Cosmo Cricket Early Bird and some Garden Variety, American Crafts Thickers, Tiny Type, and Studio Calico Rub-ons. TFL!

Bridesmaids Dresses

We went shopping for bridesmaids dresses today. Decided on 2 styles from Alfred Angelo. Both will be Petunia(just a shade darker than coral, which looked to pinky pink to me) and will have a Tangelo sash tied on the side. You can check out all the wedding details so far on my wedding website on the right sidebar! TFL!
