Mini Wedding Album

Of course it's the one on the beach and of course

I'm using beachy stuff.

I totally had an ah-ha moment when I first started.

I glued paper to the front page, didn't like it

and ripped it off.

AND THEN - it became a shabby chic moment.
Since it was a gift, I added 

ALL MY FAVORITE PICTURES.

 Mostly, because I could of course, and because

there were a finite number of pages 

(or it gets cumbersome and ugly) 

I wanted to get everyone in and tell a story.

 I'm not going to mention here that one of the 

pages got flipped and was now out of order so I'm

rolling with I planned it that way 😏

 Those really are shells and I'm worried about

their shelf life, but paper ones just didn't look the same.

 I did send everyone all my pix so they can pick and choose

their favs and are so not stuck with mine.

Of course the back needed just a little something.

This was a mix of paint, papers (I can't ID - but either

Studio Calico or Pink Fresh or Basic Grey

it's all I have in my stash and assorted stamps, 

Tim Holtz words and seashells, netting and sea glass from M's.

The bride and groom loved it.

Whew.

The wedding service - vows

It's a bit battered and beaten - the beach was windy

and it was in a page protector, and I

decided to save it as is as a reminder of the wind.

It was also sunny and pretty too but that didn't beat up

my papers.

So I took one of my favorite photos of them and

added it to the service, as well as the date, with my date stamp.

 I had also decorated the back side so everyone wouldn't see

a plain white back, because we couldn't have that LOL.

I added the photo of the family using the same colors and

materials on both.

I thought this would make a nice addition to my scrapbook

and of course there'll be more wedding pix, and

I'll also add it the mini album I'm going to make for

my neice. 

Studio Calico.

Junior bridesmaids doing important Jr. Bridesmaid stuff

Angelina and CaraLYNN are quite the pair.

Had a great time taking their pictures and

watching them through my lens.
