Project Life Wedding and BIG News SU partnered with Becky Higgins (starting May 1st)

Project Life is an amazing system of recording memories without the hassle, investment, or hours required to finish a typical scrapbook. Becky Higgins has created a revolutionary system to simplify the process of preserving your family’s history in a simple, yet stylish way that takes out all of the guesswork.

I've been a long time stamper, scrapbooker, a former Creative Memories Consultant and I said to myself "I can do this" and took the plunge.  A few months back I've put together my first Project Life album together a wedding theme.  I made two duplicate albums of the same, one for the bride and groom and another album for my daughter who was one of the bridesmaid and also the bride’s hair stylist.




Project Life is an amazing and simple scrapbooking system designed by Becky HigginsLot's more news down below.

Take a look of Kelly and Ian's special wedding day ... Oct. 28th, 2012 ... it WAS a perfect fall day.

Most photographs are taken my me and some by Honey, Honey Photography, California.
Beautiful bride!
 It’s a super simple, totally affordable way to get your photos into albums: you just slip your photos into Photo Pocket Pages and add designed cards.

I didn't do any journaling.  I will leave this blank for the bride to do. 
Most photographs are taken my me and some by Honey, Honey Photography, California.
    Kelly and Ian, the bride and groom had made the sweetest wedding favors that I've have ever seen.  They were a mason jar filled with delicious oatmeal cookies adorned with beautifully laced & ivory satin picot edge-ribbon draped all around (photo on the left).  The center photo showing I made a mason jar cut with the SU Perfectly Preserved framelits (unfortunately retired) filled with a punched leaves, covered with SU cardstock vellum and adorned with the ribbon from her favors.  Stampin' Up!'s high-quality vellum is great for overlays and creating soft illusions.  Misc. Round Doily.
We surprised Kelly and Ian with a wedding gift a photo album I made filled with
photographs taken of their special day on their one year anniversary. 
One their one year anniversary.
