Happily Ever After

Is it really the start of another week? Well, if it is Monday, it is time for another challenge over at The Kraft Journal! This week, we're challenging you to come up with a project theme of "My Favorite Things" and use kraft cardstock or products from The Kraft Outlet in your creations! You have until next Sunday evening to link up for a chance at some wonderful prizes!

Today I'm sharing a project that I made using the Lunch Bag Kraft CD Sleeve and other goodies from The Kraft Outlet. One of my favorite things ever was my wedding day and this project was inspired by our wedding invitations. It just so happens that my husband and I chose letterpressed CD sleeve invitations for our wedding that folded like a book and included a DVD of photos and movies of our courtship set to our favorite music. Don't you think that would make a cute anniversary gift, too?

I stamped and embossed both the front and back of the CD sleeve with anniversary-themed images, and stamped the CD with a "happily ever after" message.
While I was working on this project and we were reminiscing about these invitations, my hubby and I laughed at how "me, me, me" it seemed but we really loved the idea of sharing so much of ourselves with our family and friends. Here we are cuting our cake...And this is a photo of my inspiration for this week's project...Thanks for visiting and I hope you come play along with us at The Kraft Journal this week!

Supplies: Stamps - Cameo To Go, Vintage Labels 5, Eat Cake, Vintage Lables 10 (WMS), Kraft CD Sleeve, Distress Inks (TKO), Embossing Powders (SU!, American Crafts), Pearls (Hero Arts)

  3. Aw Jen, that's such a sweet story about your wedding. That was a really neat gift idea and what a coincidence that we're working with the sleeves and you have the perfect inspiration for your project. Great job! :-)
