Handmade Weddings

Weddings are the perfect time to be creative and do some handmade projects.  Since each couple has their own unique style and wedding theme, there are so many opportunities to take that feeling and run with it.  Whether you're doing the table-scapes, the flower arrangements, or just making a handmade card for the bride and groom, handmade projects can add a personal touch and make the couple feel that much more special.

For an upcoming wedding where the bride and groom only asked for monetary gifts, I decided to make a nice handmade card in which to enclose our gift.  I thought it would help set our gift apart from the rest and could also be a keepsake with the couple's wedding items.  I used some "Best Occasions" scrapbook paper and tags, blue cardstock, a Martha Stewart scalloped hole punch, ribbon, a denim colored stamp pad from Close to My Heart, and some gem embellishments.  Within a half hour's time I had a lovely card made especially for the new couple.  What a great way to make someone feel like it is their special day!
