Finally Scrappy!!!

It's been a rough few months since I started back to work. Haven't worked at ALL for 4 years, haven't worked every day for over 10! And never worked with such rude, inconsiderate, mean customers before either! But we're finally getting caught up at work and my personal life seems to be calming down too. Since February things have been quite crazy around me and I'm glad to have some light at the end of the proverbial tunnel! Needless to say, my scrappy time has been seriously affected. I expected some of that to happen but not anywhere near as much as I've really lost. Now that things are kinda calming down I'm hoping I can start to catch up on some major projects I had planned.
Like my brother and sister-in-law's wedding album I promised them as a wedding gift! They got married April 16 and normally I'd have finished it and had it in the mail to them. Unfortunately, I've only been able to complete a few pages. I plan on changing that this long holiday weekend! :)
I was able to do this two-pager over a few days this week and while it took me 3 days to complete, I really love how it turned out. I used a sketch from Lucy Chesna's E-Book (you can find it at http://mysketchworld.blogspot.com/2010/09/my-sketch-world-ebook.html) which I absolutely LOVE. The colors turned out very garishly in the scan, but they really aren't this loud or bright in real life... The title and wedding bells are heat embossed.


Materials - Cardstock - Bazzill; Stickers - EK Success; Letter Stamps - Autumn Leaves; Image Stamp - Stampin Up; Ink - Versamark; Embossing Powder - Stampendous; Rhinestones - Colorbok; Stickles - Ranger; Punch - Martha Stewart
I hope you have a wonderful July 4th holiday if you're in the US and if not, have a wonderful weekend!
Happy Scrapping!
