It's Official! / Chickaniddy Crafts

Hello there!  I hope your week has been a great one :)  Today I'm sharing a layout I created for Chickaniddy Crafts earlier this week focusing on two things:  Weddings and Shiny Silver Foil Paper!  I was excited to get to create a wedding layout this month.  My husband and I were married in 2000, and I hadn't started scrapbooking yet.  It was fun to dig into my wedding photos and pull out this fun one of us about to drive away in the limo after our reception :)

I used mostly goodies from the Date Night collection.  I think my favorite parts are the shiny silver foil and that cute diamond ring sticker!  I love creating layers and textures on my pages, so I did some stamping, watercolors and modeling paste to jazz up my background a bit.  I used some of the awesome silver foil paper as part of my layers and for all the little hearts flying around.  The foil paper punches like a dream and cuts in a die-cut machine perfectly.

Here you can really see the shine from the foil.  I love the pops of brightness it gives throughout the layout.

I think these butterfly stickers added the perfect touch to this part of the page...they make me think of flying free, and that's what my "new" husband and I were about to do after getting married :)

There's that adorable diamond ring...perfect for a wedding layout :)  You can also see more of the modeling paste and stamping here as well as the layering.

I hope this inspires you to dig out some older photos and scrap them.  Our wedding photos weren't digital, so I actually just took a photo of the actual photo and edited it.  I like that it doesn't look perfect.  But the memory WAS perfect, and that's what counts.

I also hope this inspires you to give the shiny foil paper a chance.  I promise you will LOVE it!

Thanks for stopping by today!
