In LOVE with Cloud 9 Epoxy Quotes

So...how do you present the wedding snaps you took at the wedding to the bride and groom ? Do you scrap an elaborate album for them, or just put the photos loose in a card ? Why not do a little of both ?

I have cut down some 6"x6" page protectors to fit standard 4"x6" photos; made a cardstock album cover to hold them; punched holes with my Fiskars eyelet setter and set eyelets to thread the ribbon through; and then decorated to suit.

In the tradition of "something old, something blue, something borrowed and something blue" these beautiful new epoxy quote stickers from Cloud 9 add an element of elegance and help personalise the album. I've also used some old products by way of the Cloud 9 sparkle wedding paper. I borrowed the photo from my mum's wedding album (wasn't she a beautiful bride ?), and I've coloured the chipboard shape in the middle of the flower with some blue Li'l Davis Designs Glitter Glaze (you can see that on the third pic above).
