Newlyweds!

PWC81-Newlyweds-wm

Hi everyone,

Of course it is Wednesday which means it is time for another Pretties Wednesday Challenge & Blog Hop. If you didn't hop onto my blog via Christi Thorsen's blog then you might want to hop back over to the very start of the blog hop which is at Christie Ortman's blog.

This week it is Christie’s turn to issue the challenge which is to make 6 x 6 scrapbook page. Now just so you all know ….. I DON’T scrapbook!!!!!!! I know many of you do and that is fine, but I just don’t and to make matters worse, the majority of photos I take are of my cards/projects not people! Anyway never one to shirk a challenge, I did my page. I used a photo from my daughters wedding from last year … I can’t believe it is now just over a year since the wedding …. doesn’t time fly!

I used Paper Pretties new “Time For Cake” set to embellish my scrapbook page. This time round I used the cake as is just adding the flowers at the top so it resembled the cake in the photo … just a little anyway.

Want to play along with us
How to Enter: Create a card using the challenge above and any Paper Pretties stamp set(s) you have. Upload your project to the Paper Pretties gallery. Please include it in the Weekly Challenges category and use keyword PWC81.
Deadline: 6pm EST Tuesday, December15th.
