Read all the details for the
June HOMECOMING Challenge:
Sooo...
A project about any changes since joining the Design Team here at Scrap Our Stash:
As
an encore to last month's page about our Celtic Betrothal Handfasting
Ceremony in 2009 I made a page for our 1 year Wedding Anniversary in
2011. When I joined all the wonderfully talented ladies here at SOS it
was January 2011 and I had *just* gotten married. Now we're swiftly
heading towards Wedding Anniversary #2.
The wheels of time keeps turning!
On
our 1 year anniversary we had a nice lunch out, then since the weather
was so beautiful we went for a walk in the park our Betrothal
Handfasting Ceremony was held. We brought a pretty stone from our garden
with us and placed it on the large flat rock we'd stood on to say our
vows when we had our hands tied together. We also took some pictures...
my favorite being the one of our shadows over that special rock.
Page base is a My Mind's Eye: Life Stories sheet... part of the much drooled on, but barely used stash.
I
cut a piece of white vellum to go across the page, it's slightly wider
than 12" so I folded the extra around the base paper on each side. Dug
out a Fiskar border punch (threading water) and punched along each edge
and threaded the ribbon through. Ribbon is a Celebrate It St.Patrick's
Day pattern of wee plaid shamrocks. When threading them through I
flipped the vellum around so the stems are facing the photos each way.
Photos
were cut using the cutter I saved that never worked right... cuts the
edges all 'shaggy' which has it's uses... then I sanded them with an
emery board. When attaching the largest photo I left is open underneath
on the right so I could hide some journaling underneath. Journaling
block is from Little Yellow Bicycle's 'Lucky Me' Journaling Tablet. I
punched it with another border punch (leave it to weaver), sliced off
that strip and attached it the bottom of the block, then punched the top
again to match.
My
favorite part of this page is the LYB Clear Cuts Lucky Me 'logo' with
the 'EST.2009' on it: The Year of our Betrothal Ceremony. The September
is a rub-on from Bohemia.
Will be slipping this page into the back of our 'I'm still working on it' Wedding Album, lol.
Now it's your turn to take the June HOMECOMING Challenge.
