Are you as tired as I am? Christmas was filled with lots of food, family, and fun, but boy is it exhausting! What am I doing out of bed?! It's back to work for the rest of the week where I'm trying to complete a wedding album. I can't help but share the following page, which is slapping me in the face as I am on coffee cup number three!

Wedding Scrapbook Layout (via shezigzags.blogspot.com)
These pictures of the bride and groom greeting family and friends after the ceremony are just darling and needed to be included in the album! I chose to keep the page clean and simple, adding the pictures directly to the background page and adding a single piece of patterned paper along the bottom. 

WRMK Embossed Stickers
The title was cut from the same white cardstock using the Silhouette Cameo. The weld option on the Silhouette makes it so easy to adhere the word to the page as one complete piece. 

WRMK Embossed Stickers
To bring in a little color, I grabbed embossed cardstock stickers from the Chalkboard Collection by We R Memory Keepers. Several pieces from the sticker sheet were layered onto the page with a simple typed word.

Now, how can you not smile after seeing something like that?! Hope you're having a wonderful, restful day. 

*If you're in the Wisconsin area, I highly recommend Glitz Photography, the artists behind these beautiful wedding photos. You can find them here.

Have a great day...

All of my craft time in my studio the last few weeks has been devoted to scrapbooking. I'm happy to finally be documenting my recent trips and memories into an album; however, I've missed the excitement and instant gratification that comes from card making. Therefore, I spent my afternoon making nothing but cards. Woo hoo! Eleven cards and two tags later, I have a little something to show you... This card using the most adorable image from Penny Black. Hope you enjoy :)

CARD SUPPLIES
Cardstock: American Crafts, Copic X-Press It Blending Paper
Stamps: Penny Black

Paper piecin' the night away...

My roomie always makes fun of me for the hours I spend coloring and cutting as stress relief. It may be a tad strange, but it's healthier than boozing it up, right?! Hmm.... Well here's an example of tedious paper piecing and embellishing. It got my mind off the cares of the day and created a pretty end result. Hope you enjoy!

Paper: Amy Butler for K&Company

i'm in recovery mode.

this past week has been quite a busy one. lots of classes and new month planning at work, along with preparing for my brother's wedding kept my planner full. take a look at this past weekend:






that blank sunday was sure needed. in fact, i woke up on my couch, still in my dress and shoes, holding my cell phone and a piece of cake, at 5 am sunday... i guess i danced it up a little too much. who falls asleep like that?! we met up with the bride and groom for some lunch and a nice, quick gift opening, and then it was rest and relaxation for the rest of the day. i'm a little sad it's all over... back to 'normal' life for me. only now with a sister! happiness all around. 

here's a little snippet of fun from the weekend: 

saturday morning project - painting reception decor

our good friend, rebekah, the fabulous cake decorator

maid of honor, samantha giving me some funny face

my pretty new sister

ha! my bro makes this face all. the. time.

my gorgeous momma and i enjoying the crisp fall air

the pops. he cleans up nice.

best man, brenden, and his crazy cute girlfriend, sarah

the crazy ushers, josh and brandon, adding a little comic relief 

can't wait to see the photos the fancy photographer took. i'm sure they'll outshine my simple cell pics. 

until the next wedding,
