"Bride". Est. 1977

 
It's the first time I scrap my own wedding pictures. I fell in love with the new line of papers from Graphic 45 called "Le Romantique" because one of the papers has the image of a bride with a wedding hat very similar to the one I wore 33 years ago (yes, I was 19 years old!). My  dress and veil were designed by Piera Ferrari from Venezuela, where I am from. My daughter wore my veil (not the hat) on her wedding two years ago.

I am sharing a  lot of pictures because the photos do not give justice to the beauty of the papers and all the details in the page. I made paper flowers out of the same line, I used Prima flowers and rhinestones swirls, metal leaves, shear butterflies, awesome metal & pearl buttons as centers of the flowers, chipboard clock, heart, wings, (used the cuttlebug to emboss the heart),  letters, and branches made out of wood. I crackled the picture of Steve and I  (black and white on the left).  My very favorite  detail on the page is : Est. 1977 (next to the letter E). I must say it was a lot of fun to make. Enjoy!
