Finally...the wedding gift

March 8th one of my best friends got married. I made an awesome shadow box and proceeded to leave it at home by accident. Well, then I go the bright idea to take it apart and fix it up a bit. Leave it to me to never just let anything be. Well, then I broke the actual box and managed to mangle a part of the stuff that was inside the box. So, this is take two. I think I like it more than the original although I was skeptical at the beginning. I was able to use the flowers from her wedding and a photo, which you will not see because I haven't been able to find someone in Palatka who can print a one hour digital photo. Gah!!! The photo gnomes are against me today!



I always make such a mess when I'm working

More mess, I didn't end up using these stickers for this project but I am eager to use them for another, they are so cute!

A rough draft of sorts, before anything was actually stuck on. That's the photo, crappy quality on printer paper but, I very nice photo of the couple

Everything is stuck on for good now!


One of my fav. embellishments ever made, metal tags!

On the left, Matt's boutonniere, on the left part of my bouquet. Maybe a do over worked in my favor. I'm so glad she used silk flowers, they came in very handy here.

Perhaps one of my all time favorite quotes about marriage. I have never been able to find who it is by but I love it because to me it is real life this is the kind of promise that marriage should be.

*the shadow box is drying from being cleaned. when I finally get the picture in and everything closed up I will post a final product picture
