Thought I would share the bouquet I made for my daughters wedding. This was made using squares of paper that you fold into each petal, then I stuck 5 or 6 petal around a cocktail stick to form each flower and finished with a gem in the centre. It was a real labour of love. She wanted lollies in her bouquet so I used a round polystyrene ball to stick the lollies and the flowers in, with some pencils taped together to form the handles. These were then hidden by the purple ribbon that matched the colour theme. It was a bouquet that could not be thrown as it would have caused damage but she was really pleased with it as she did not want real flowers.  As a surprise for Jen and Marcus I added the tags with the some pictures of some grandparents that watched from heaven, so she felt they were part of the day. I made a smaller one for her bridesmaid to carry as well. I am entering this into the following challenges Simply Paper Crafts - Anything Goes Paper...

At last I have some time to craft and blog. After my daughters wedding and then her house purchase, we have been helping them decorate and get their house sorted. Whilst we did that to surprise me my son decorated our now spare room and moved all my craft stuff in, so I now have my own room for crafting in - how lucky am I. This card uses a pre coloured image from Charmed Craft that at I have had for ages,  the charmed digi stamps where the first stamps I used when I started using digi ones. It is simply printed onto the card and then the text added using word. Inside the card the verse says Scientists have discovered that the longer people stay married, the more they begin to look alike. You better start putting name tags in your underwear! Happy Anniversary I made this card for my sister and brother law in on their anniversary.
