New Years Day

First off. . .Happy New Year everyone! I really couldn't believe it when it struck 2009 I whispered to my fiance. . . "we are getting married THIS year". He proposed on December 22, 2007 and 2009 seemed so far away and now it is almost here. I am so beyond excited not just for the party or putting on a pretty dress but I am excited that I am marrying someone that I am head over heals in love with. Like any real couple we have our ups and downs but I would rather be with him than anyone else. So New Years Day I decided to get some things done for the wedding since I didn't have work. I printed up 4 of our engagement pictures and put them into the card box which I posted previously. I LOVE that card box. . . FYI once my wedding is over chances are that will be for sale I doubt I will have use for it later. I also decided to work on my table numbers which again I posted previously. I am still working on them they are pretty time consuming but here is some of the progress that I have been making. . . .

I still cant finish until we decide on our menu but I love these :o)

DIY Table Numbers

So I just designed my table numbers. The table numbers will actually be 3 sided and will include the table number, menu card, and the word love written out in different languages. I played around with photoshop and this is what I was able to come up with. . . .

After I printed out my templates I put a card stock mat behind it to bring in the colors and give it a layered look (which I love). All you have to do is tape the ribbon to the mat and then tape your template to the mat. Final step is to tie your bow and there you have it!
