Matchmaker, Matchmaker, make me a match...

Catch me a catch.

Find me a find. 

*****
OK OK I digress!

However I am 1 for 1 in the matchmaking department!

I set up my friends Justin & Jennifer ~2 1/2 years ago.

Lee & I went with them on their first date. 

And they got married a couple weekends ago.

Boom!

I think I will quit while I am ahead.

No more matchmaking for me!

:)

*****
I scrapped a few pictures from the wedding with my "Union Square" kit.

This kit was perfect to scrap these fall wedding pics!

I did quite a bit of fussy cutting this one!
I was watching the Alabama-LSU game last Saturday while trying to make this page. 

I was too nervous during the 1st 3 quarters of the game to actually put the page together.

But I could fussy-cut some hearts and flowers no problem!

Roll Tide!

Have a great day!

Hi there and happy Thursday! 

Gretchen here with another layout to share using the Beach Blvd kit.

I know this is a bright, summer-y kit, but I've managed to pull off 2 wedding layouts with it! 

This layout is all about the makeshift bridal shower we had at work for my friend Melody. 

It's also about the shower that almost got us all fired because we did not get it "approved" first. 

Oh lordy!

That's another story for another day!
:)

But here is the layout that I hope you "approve" of!

Here are a couple close up shots...

I reeeeeally love the cute Basic Grey candy buttons!

Of course, I still love brads so certainly I would also love these!

Every now and then I like to go a little vertical with my titles.

:)

Thanks for stopping by the blog today!

Have a great one!

Hey!

Good morning good people!
It's Gretchen! I'm back for another term and I am pretty pumped about it!

I got my Beach Blvd kit over this past weekend and I couldn't wait to dig in and make something.
And since June is such a big month for weddings, I thought I would use this summer-y kit to make a sweet wedding layout.
My friend Melody got married this past April. I had a few pics from the wedding printed out polaroid-style at Persnickety Prints and I have been looking forward to scrapping them!

I got really doodle-y on this layout! It was pretty fun!

I originally learned this doodle-y border technique from our very own Virginia. I was scrapping with her once and watched her doodle a swirly scalloped border on patterned paper and then cut it out. Genius! And now I copy that idea all the time! :)

One more close up...I love the look of the polaroids! 

So there you go! It's a wedding layout with a summer-y kit! Thanks for stopping by the blog today and thanks for having me back!

Have an awesome day!!

:)
