Not as easy as it looks

Well it took me about 4 hours just to trace the whole monogram and just paint the M. I'm not that thrilled with the way it looks. The blue is too dark. The paint bleeds outside the lines. I lined it with a black Sharpie and it looks a little better - but I dunno. We'll see how it looks when the whole thing is done. We may just go runner-less. Sigh...Maybe I'm not as crafy as I thought :(

It's Aisle Runner Time!!

I'm about to go to Kinkos to print out my monogram so I can paint it on my aisle runner. Hopefully I can do as good a job as HeatherKJ. So off I go!! I'll take pictures throughout the process - but probably will post them all together. Stay tuned!!!

DIY Bride Gets Creative

My current version of our wedding programs. The left side is the back, the right side is the front in the layered format.



Inspiration for Isle Runner done by heatherjk. Great job Heather!!



One of 10 Photo Scavenger Hunt pages. We had planned to have the wedding cameras on the table. Hopefully this will encourage some fun shots at the wedding!




Save the date cards - but will probably have a different photo....




For our wedding wish bowl



For our signature platter....

I also am giong to create a unity candle, tears of joy packets, coloring books, a card box (possibly), out of town bags, and spoonful of kisses.

I'll try to post pictures throughout the process. As of right now it is just in the planning and designing stages.

Love it!!
