card making frenzy

I've finally forced myself to sit down and do something with all of my recent paper/craft supply purchases. The problem is it takes me so long to make anything that I become fiercely selective about who receives them. So far I've mainly made wedding cards and a few birthday cards. I think I'll try baby cards next.

For Kellie's wedding four couples decided to go in together and buy them the wine rack they wanted and fill it with different wines (30 in all!). We all picked one of our favourites and I made labels for them. I think they turned out pretty well.

our new basement

here's a few pictures of our fabulous new basement. it's actually been done for a few weeks now. many thanks to family slave labour.

wedding scrapbook #2

I just finished my second and final wedding scrapbook. This one has the pictures from the showers, bachelorette and honeymoon.

my new headboard

Here's the new headboard that Mark gave us as a wedding gift. My room is freshly painted in this lovely shade of beige aswell. I love it even if it is all beige.

phase 2 of the basement reno

The colour didn't really photograph too well but it's a really fresh lime/celery green. It looks really nice with white so the built in shelving will look great when it's painted.


This is the painting by Keith that we took the colour from.

the current state of our basement

Jon and my dad are renovating the basement. It started out with a plan to build a bookshelf...

our wedding favours

my new photo wall

rings

This is my attempt at still photography. I took around 50 pictures - about 4 turned out.

the wedding album and my first blog (ever)

I've been told by Mere that this is much easier than emailing photos (and much less time consuming) so here goes. These are just a few of the pages from the album. This is how I spent my March break. -FYI if you click on the images you can make them larger (does everyone know that already? probably. i just figured that out today)
