Wedding Mini

Hi, everyone

So here is my latest mini. It's a "Wedding" mini, as if the letters, tulle and the colors didn't give it away. I started this one a few weeks ago but the bulk of the work was done this past weekend. The high temps and humidity kept me comfortably housebound in the icyness of my air conditioned livingroom last weekend but that was ok by me. I had plenty to scrap and while away the day.

I not only finished this one but I started 2 others. They are both going to be Sweet 16 mini albums so I'm doing them simultaneously. They are orders for 2 different people so it really doesn't matter if they are alike. What I found odd when shopping for sweet 16 embellies is, there aren't any. I couldn't find any stickers or other stuff for that theme at either Mike's or Moore's. Oh well, guess this is a wonderful opportunity to use up some of my generic embellies.

Ok, so back to my wedding mini. I again used all kinds of stuff. From my crocheted flowers in white, black and grey to some white tulle. Take a peek below. I think the lady who ordered it will be pleased. Well, at least I hope she will be pleased.


























































































































































































































































I hope you liked it. Thanks for taking the time to visit.

Have a scrap happy day!

This is absolutely lovely! What an incredible gift for the new couple. I love the use of white, silver, gray, and black. It is elegant and will showcase both color and/or black white photos beautifully.

Another beauty, Serene!! Love the black ou used for this. It makes it so elegant. I know she will be pleased with it!! How wonderful.

Laughed when you said you stayed in you air conditioning. It has been so hot here. Weeks of heat indexes in 100. I am getting used to it, I guess. Went out for a 55 min bicycle ride with Jim when it was 103 heat index yesterday. Am I getting weird like him and love the heat?? I hope not. We have even had to set the AC at 79 because the electric has gotten too high for our retirement income!! YUK!! Pray for a short summer. LOL

Love seeing your minis. Be sure to post the other two when you get them done!!!

Just wonderful Serene, so beautiful!! I love the papers you chose here.

I'm going to be starting a memory book for Desirae's shower to be passed around to the guests for them to sign. This is the best part of our hobby.

Awesome, Serene! This mini is perfect for a wedding - it just sparkles.

You really have to tell me your secret in getting the letters cut...

Stunning!
I am so glad I didn't get pics of the wedding albums I made recently, because you put them to shame!
You really do rock the mini!
