Wedding Album Part 6 - Finally Finished!

After about 2 1/2 years our wedding album is finally finished! :D  I started it ages ago but then I lost the mood for doing scrapbooking, so I finally got back to it 2 weeks ago and finished it. :)
Here's part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4 and part 5 of the album.

This was the "I Do" part of the ceremony:

 The rings part:

 The "just married" chapel exit:

 The background paper is so pretty that I didn't want to cover it up with too much decor, but I made a little "just married" floating balloon-looking thingie:

 I used a ribbon and a cardboard cut-out to make a little slider goodie on the page:

 I used some mulberry paper that I wet with some water and tore the edges, then stamped a paragraph on it:

 I used some iridescent string tied onto the cardboard cut-out and taped to the back of the page to place this onto the page:

 I used mulberry paper again that I wet with water and tore to get a soft effect, and stamped on some love words.  I also used a punch on the photo corners:

 I used an Inkadinkadoo stamping gear to decorate this background paper - this is a really cool stamping thingy:

 To decorate the background I added a piece of hearty tissue paper that was used as a filler in a gift bag that I got at my kitchen tea (or was it from a wedding gift...):

 The bouquet and garter part:

 I used my cuttlebug to emboss 3 squares of paper to add some decoration on the page:

 I also used my cuttlebug to emboss this piece of cardstock, and used purple chalk to colour it in and make the embossing more visible, and inked the edges a green inkpad:

 Dancing:

 I used a heart design punch on a purple piece of scrap paper and glued it onto a white piece of scrap cardstock, and then distressed the edges of the white cardstock (if you can see it):

 The cake, mmmm, and cake cutting.  I made this background page by folding a piece of paper that was used to wrap one of our wedding gifts, it was a pretty paper with glittered silver wording on it:

 And lastly, on the inside back cover of the album I made a section for all the thank you cards and things I gave out.  In the centre is a pocket I made with more tissue paper that was used as a filler in a wedding gift-bag, and I put the wedding thank you card in it.  On the left is the thank you tags I made for the wedding favours everyone got, and at the bottom left I made another pocket to hold the thank you note I gave everyone who came to my kitchen tea:

 I cut out patterned cardstock - 1 square (the back piece) and a half square (the front piece), inked the edges and "tied" them together with 3 brads to make a pocket:

So glad I finally finished it! :D

Little Squares Nursery Wall Decor

I made some cute wall decor for the nursery using little wooden tray thingies:

I painted them green and yellow and varnished them.  I had cute little animal keyrings that I made to sit in each frame.  Cute huh!?  :D

Ladybug Baby Album

I bought some of these cute cardboard cutout albums looooong ago, and finally had something to do with one of them - I'm gonna make Aidan's first little baby scrapbook album, hehe.

Here's the before:

I decorated the top like a ladybug:

Then I covered each "page" inside with scrapbook paper and either chalked or inked the edges just to round it off.  From the front:

From the back: 

Now I need to fill it up with some baby stuff, eg sonar pics and other info like the first time I felt him move and other first time stuff like that. :D  I think it's going to be my cutest scrapbook yet.  :)
