Today starts another new challenge at The Sisterhood of Crafters. The theme is Wedding so you can create any project based around a wedding. Now for some fun I challenged myself to use something old and something new. I have had this paper in my stash for I don't know how many years. I don't even know where I got it since it was a 8x8 size and I don't ever recall buying anything like that. I found it by accident and fell in love With it. I also had these metal heart stickers if you will for about 6-7 years. I also found this card in my library on my Silhouette and thought that the belly band would work perfectly. Now I needed something new. I grabbed my newly purchased SIMPLY SAID stamps from Craftin' Desert Divas and it fit perfectly. The gorgeous ribbon is also new from Love Bug Creations.
About Me

- Carlisle, Pennsylvania
- I am a stay at home mom..now that is! February 19th, 2007 I was involved in a car accident while on vacation in Florida. I awoke in ICU to find out that my only two children Annemarie age 3 and Michael age 5 did not make it. Scrapbooking became such a big part of my life. It helped fill a void that I desperately needed to fill. Our therapist suggested that I take up scrapbooking as a way to memorialize my children, little did she know! So I took that and ran with it.I became obsessed with scrapping and took over the second largest room in my house. Because of my injuries I couldn't go out and get a job, I just scrapped!I printed out 2,000 photos and my journey began. I have made albums for family members and layouts to decorate my craft room. We thought we were done having kids but who expected this tragedy??? I just gave birth in June 2009 to two beautiful baby girls Mia Anne and Gianna Marie named after their brother and sister.I swore that I would keep up with their albums so I won't become overwhelmed so we will see how that works out! My profile picture is the last family picture that was taken of all of us.
BEAUTIFUL Lisa! What a great idea to use the old-new-borrow-blue wedding saying as a starting point! You always create so beautifully! Hope your doing 'okay' ... thinking of you! I'm here if you need a friend! HUGS from OHIO!
