Super Star Challenge #1

by CougFanDec 14, 2004
<FONT face=arial>This is a layout that is very special to me, but didn't know exactly how I wanted to do it. As soon as I received the challenge, though, I knew just what I was going to do. I used ivory satin to 'lace' the paper, and covered the tag envelope with it. The tag also has the satin for the 'pull'. The accordian tags come out of the envelope, and read:<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>"When my mom got married, she wore her sister's wedding gown. It was her dream to one day have a daughter who would want to wear the dress when she got married. When I announced my engagement, she asked if I would like to wear the gown. I told her I would be honored. My mom had the dress brought to me in Washington, where Kory's Aunt Jackie would alter it. When we took it out of the bag, we were sad to see that it had been destroyed. My mom could not afford to have the dress preserved, so it had disintegrated in some parts. It was obviously unsalvagable. We came up with the perfect solution--a piece of the delicate ivory satin would be hidden in my bouquet. Not only did it satisfy my "something old", but I was fortunate to have both my dad AND mom with me as I walked down the aisle!"<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>For this layout, I used:<BR><BR><BR><BR>Ivory Satin <BR><BR><BR><BR>Green Provocraft Textured paper -- RAK from Donna (ScrapDoggie)<BR><BR><BR><BR>pink cardstock<BR><BR><BR><BR>Paper Reflections accordion tags<BR><BR><BR><BR>American Tag tag envelope<BR><BR><BR><BR>Mrs. Grossman's Rose Garland and Wedding Flowers<BR><BR><BR><BR>white vellum<BR><BR><BR><BR>Bazzill mini brads (from the Reds pkg)<BR><BR><BR><BR>(The scan wasn't very close-up, so I took a picture instead)</FONT>
