My New Joural

Yesterday as I was taking it easy (wasn't feeling so great) I played with the new Soft Flowers My DIgital Studio download and created a journal!

Here's the PDF with the Soft Flowers download on it-  you CAN use it in ANY application on your computer! You DONT have to have MDS to use it!

Download MDS_Downloads_-_May_22

In the My Digital Studio Computer program, there is a specific "journal" template and it is for creating the fronts and backs only. When it is sent to the Stampin Up Print services they add lined paper to the inside. I will be sending mine in next week and when it's back I will get more photos to share with you!

Back

I still plan to add my name to the back of the book but I wanted to share this fun download and application with you today!

Have an awesome and creative day and thanks for stopping by!

Western Wedding Invitations and Favor

So, They are headed home today - Katie and Mitch. This week has just gone WAY to fast for me!

Here are the "mock ups" of the Wedding Invitation and one of the table Favors we came up with-  It's a Country/Western Wedding in a Barn!

Since the Wedding will be in the Fall of 2013,  we will fill these favors with Candy Corn!

Yes, I make and sell favors for showers, weddings, parties of all kinds. A favor like the one above will cost $1.50 each (plus postage/shipping) and they will be empty and ready for you to fill. Pre- orders and pre payment are required on all special orders.

 

 

 

It has been awesome to have them here, wish they lived closer than 1600 miles away!

More of the plans over the weekend.  Have an awesome and creative day!

 The colors will be Chocolate Chip and Very Vanilla with some oranges, yellos and old olive greens in them......  the invitation is already created!

Here are some ideas we are mulling around-  I would LOVE to know links to paper flowers made using SU dies- I have some ideas of my own but can always use more! lol

As you can tell, it will be a Fall Wedding and in 2013 We have searched pinterest- we are on to other places for ideas!  Right now we are putting inspiration boards together and will narrow it down-  we DID get the ring bearer's pillow today!!! lol
