Happy Anniversary Chris & Emily

A year ago today we were celebrating my son's wedding!  What a day!  It was a weekend of fun, family and friends and a lovely celebration of Chris & Emily!  Just what a wedding should be.  You can see some of the fun things I did for the wedding here.

I sent an anniversary card to them.  Chris is still in Kuwait but I know Emily will save it to show him when he gets back (hopefully next month).

I saw this idea with a heart punch somewhere and thought how gorgeous.  Using the negative of a punch is such a cool look.  I ran the layer through the Big Shot with the polka dot embossing folder and put pink striped Designer Series Paper from the stacks underneath.  A little tag and a center on one flower and you have a simple quick card.  The greeting is from Teeny Tiny Wishes - my go to greeting set and great because you know they all fit in the word window punch which layers lovely with the modern label punch.  Here is a close up.

The little organdy ribbon frosting I think just gives it a little softness.

If you would like to see some great wedding and decor ideas be sure to come see us at the Pleasanton Scrapbook Expo, March 16 & 17.  We are planning on having some great displays of things you could use for parties.  We will also have some My Digital Studio samples of wedding invites, samples and favors.  Remember you can currently try My Digital Studio for free for 30 Days.  During the free trial you can download additional items to try and even send in something to pring. 

Working on Chris & Emily's wedding was awesome using My Digital Studio!

 

 

My Digital Studio 30% OFF!

I have been a digital scrapbooking queen lately trying to get as many albums done and printed this month!  The one I am going to share with you today is not really an album but it is.  I made this book as a guest book for my son's wedding.  It turned out really cool.  It looks familiar because I used the same photos that I used in a previous album of their engagement photos.

What was really nice is that people wrote short paragraphs and were spread throughout the book.  When I started the book I wasn't sure how I was going to make the lines but one of the digital downloads released right then was Thoughtful Overlays which had the lines as an overlay and was quick and easy.  Emily and Chris really enjoy this book!

Check out the new Digital Download Express and get started immediately. I will be happy to help you design your own great memory albums.

 

Wedding Invites!

So if you read my blog you have seen some of the stuff I did for my son's wedding. I have had some people ask if I would do this for them!  YES!  Check out my page on doing invites for your special event.  Here is a couple of teaser pictures.

A couple more wedding pictures

They just look so happy! 

This is Liz - not sure what she is looking at!  But doesn't she look pretty?  Well as you can tell it was a gorgeous day!

 

Wedding Invitation - It came!

When I saw the envelope I couldn't figure out who was sending something to Tamara!  Then I realized it was the WEDDING INVITATION.

Ok, yeah I made them!  But still to finally get it in the mail and know that others are getting theirs was pretty exciting.

This is what it looks like when it came out of the envelope.  I used 12" textured paper for the outside.

The printed part I did on My Digital Studio and printed it on very vanilla on my printer.  Lots of cutting and layering later it sure looks spiffy.  I wanted a pearl on it but that was nixed!

Here is a close up of the layering.

 

Engagement Photos

If you come here often you know my son is getting married!  Chris and Emily had engagement photos taken and they were lovely.  It was really hard to choose which one to use for the Save the date.  Since the whole family was going to be together I wanted to share all of these with everyone.  So I made an album and then turned it into this slide show.  Emily gave me the song which I think just fits so well. We are going to try and figure out how to insert it on their wedding website!

I hope you enjoy it as much as we all did!

We have a Wedding!

I am sorry I haven't posted but trying to recover from surgery,  visiting children, keep business stuff going and helping plan a wedding has been crazy.  This is one side of the save the date card Chris & Emily sent out.  The pictures they had done were fabulous - Narrative Images took them in San Diego, you can see the rest of them here Emily & Chris. I did it in the My Digital Studio.  Super quick and easy.  I had to take them out to print them as a postcard since Stampin' Up! didn't have that option.  Now we do!  YEAH!  When the printers converted it so they could pring it on a very heavy cardstock the printing on the back was not great.  I am so excited that in the future we can have postcards printed through the My Digital Studio Print Services - and the prices have been greatly reduced.

Here is the back of the card

The actual card had their wedding website but I took that off before I posted it!

Here is a card I did for my family Thanksgiving!

I will be honest I copied the card exactly from a sample on the My Digital Studio, inspiration forum.  A German demonstrator shared this design and I just changed it to English!  The My Digital Studio  Forum is open to customers and demonstrators to learn and share about My Digital Studio so check it out.

Here is the backside of the card.
