"Tables of Love" and "Mini Album about us"

The Women's Ministry at my church hosted "Tables of Love" Dinner last night. My table was called "Lily Pads of Love".



I used my cricut  (Story Book Cartridge) to cut out many frogs in different sizes. I  made a large one for the back of the chairs.


I made small ones for candle holders,  gift bags, and  prayer cards for everyone. They took them home so they could scrap with them!


Amanda's table was "Hollywood". She looked very elegant and pretty!


Martha's table was "Christmas". It was sooooo inviting!


Deidra's table was "Fall". She wore a very elegant hat and her table was precious, filled with rich, Autumn's wonderful colors.


There were many more tables wonderfully decorated. The highlight of the night? Our husbands were our "servers".... guess who was there???


You guessed it correctly! My husband Steve. And he had to make his own "bow tie" because he couldn't find one in town! He made it out of black ribbon with white stitching on the sides. He looked so handsome!



My friend Leah (Designer/Coordinator) from Stuck On Us Sketches had a give away a few weeks ago and I was the blessed winner! She made this gorgeous mini album so I can put pictures of me and my husband. I received it yesterday and I was so happy because it is really beautiful! Here are more pictures.
